Looking at the pictures of the one apartment that they showed, the rent seems pretty reasonable. It would be nice if it was made more affordable to the average person, but it's not crazy expensive either.
The building also has a gym and a common area that do add value to what you get. I imagine the place also had a cafeteria, but it doesn't say what they did with it.
Personally I'd have probably retro fitted it into a server room to help recoup some of the costs.
