the place is now roughly one-third full aka still basically a ghost town.

These buildings are aginging rapidly while mostly unoccupied, which is a huge waste of resources.

Why are they aging more rapidly than occupied buildings?

Air conditioning, heating, airflow, controlling pests, cycling water out of pipes/vents, and noticing problems like burst pipes.

Quality is also abysmal to start with. Looking at some buildings in decay they seem like movie/theme park sets.
