Why are so many buildings in Peru half-built?

790 views

I’ve noticed that in every city we’ve been to—Cusco, Lima, Paracas—there are many buildings that have been partially constructed. Often, the bottom floor is complete (but perhaps vacant) and the top floor(s) still have exposed rebar and are roofless. This trend appears to be for both residential and commercial structures.

After one vacation, I said the same thing when I visited Cartagena, Columbia and no one seemed to care. It was so bizarre to see “most” things weren’t fully completed or built out.
