Buildering

"Rock climbing" or "bouldering" on buildings.
Usually done with no rope, perhaps a crash pad and climbing shoes. Bridge supports, retaining walls, strangely shaped buildings and modern art (where there are no security guards) are popular buildering spots.

When rock climbers are stuck in a city with no rock to be found they go buildering.

Backseat Builder

A person who criticizes and critiques the work of a company instead of just going and building their own.

Why doesn’t he just go start his own company instead of telling me how to run mine. He’s being a backseat builder.

Builder's Special

A "builder's special" is when land is purchased (or an existing house demolished) in an established neighborhood of well-appointed homes of unique architecture by a builder who then builds a pedestrian home consisting of mainstream components and little architectural interest. Builder specials are almost always in-fill to an existing neighborhood.

While all McMansions are Builder Specials, the derisive term Builder Special is reserved for a pedestrian home placed in a neighborhood of unique homes, whereas McMansions are often clustered together in a subdivision of McMansions.

Yeah, a developer bought the vacant lot across the street and is putting in a builder's special.
