A viral Facebook post showing an object being thrown from the infamous Waterfront condo in Pattaya has led to a flurry of activity at the site. The clip, posted on September 30th, captured a long, white object being hurled from the roughly 20th floor of the 53-storey abandoned building near Bali Hai Pier.

 

Reporters from The Pattaya News responded swiftly, arriving to find workers removing iron and aluminium bars from the structure. Workers were acting under the directive of their boss to clean up, as theft had riddled the site over the years.

 


 

 

 

Mr. Pandawat Pimskul, a 72-year-old lawyer representing Bali Hai Co., Ltd., explained that the once-luxury condo has been marred by legal disputes since its halt in 2008. Despite various court-ordered demolition mandates, lawsuits have stalled any progress, leaving the building an eyesore and a magnet for thieves and squatters.

 

Mr. Pandawat emphasised the urgency of the cleanup, stressing the potential dangers posed by the upcoming rainy season. The lawyer reassured that efforts are underway to minimise risks to the surrounding community, reported The Pattaya News.

The boss should be under a directive to safely demolish the place more than scavenge anything of value. Presuming his employer was involved with the original construction then they are still operating in the country and need to be ordered to remove this dangerous eyesore.

Wonder how many members here lost their money when things went tits up.

 

I don’t think they will buy off plan again.

 

In America that building would be filled with Squatters and the entire outside would of been tagged.

They need to just squash the lawsuits and tear that eyesore down. It been years and years since it stopped being built and for some reason, unknown to us all, that it hasn’t been torn down.
