That's not the greatest of ideas. Though it'll be interesting what the true cause was..

The last story I heard was they were doing some structural foundation
work. Probably trying to mud jack a failed footing or something.

It was a hotel.

The hotel was a seven-story steel structure, built in 2013 and converted to a hotel in 2018,
according to Xinhua. The owner began renovating the first floor in January.

The report said Yang had hired workers to renovate two ground-floor shops that had previously been
leased to a supermarket.
Yang reportedly told police that he received a phone call from on-site construction workers on
Saturday evening saying that one pillar was deformed. The whole building collapsed about three
minutes later.
