Building towers for investors doesn't mean a place is empty. It means the towers are occupied by people renting the units from the unit owners rather than them being owner occupied. The empty ones aren't usually investment units. It's people who buy them for themselves as additional part time homes they only use occasionally.
But honestly even if it was true, it's crazy to attack a city just because someone is talking about its highrise construction. No reason to bring up totally different topics. Next thing people will be saying that we shouldn't discuss the construction of a particular city because the city has too much traffic. Or a high crime rate. Or some other flaw that has nothing to do with the topic.

Don't ask people not to debate a topic. Just stop making debatable assertions. Problem solved.
