Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? When you bulldoze Zenview Apartments.
What happens when the bug occurs? When I bulldoze Zenview Apartments in build mode, a long loading screen pops up. However, it doesn’t bulldoze the apartment and my game is frozen.
What do you expect to see? When this bug happens I can’t exit out of the game. I have to completely shut down or restart my computer for it go away.

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
This bug happens in every save I have. I only have 2. When I bulldoze the apartments it says ‘not expanded to Ops.’ That’s when the long frozen loading screen happens.

Since they fixed the Ops Error, this is hopefully squished too.
Can I get some feedback if it's still occurring ?
EDIT: Tested this and was able to bulldoze both Zenview Apartmetns fine.
Fixed an issue in which the message “Not Expanded to Ops” would appear while in Build Mode and would hinder gameplay. If this is the behavior with “Not Expanded to Ops” I don’t want to see what “Expanded to Ops” looks like, unless it is a good thing, but let’s not get carried away.
Fixed in Patch 1.67.45/ 1.32
Marking as fixed
Good Luck

Please describe the patch or change you made. I noticed after the last patch (Jun 3rd 2020) but I also bought and installed Jungle adveture on June 2nd!
Like I said before I can't delete or add interior walls of 702 Zenview apartment and it is probably it won't bulldozer the lot as well. I tryed ataching photos that show the buldozing of walls in the apartment. I also noticed that I can build in the apartment in an older save.

This same thing happens on PS4. I tried bulldozing that lot and had to force close the game because it just went into the load screen and never stopped.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just get inyto ZenView apartments
What happens when the bug occurs? I can´t bulldoze or delete any walls, floors... anything on the ZenView, 702 apartment. If I try to delete a red error appears and when I try to bulldoze, it stays loading for ages. Can't do anything to get out or stop the loading, so I have to force the game shut down with the tasks admin. There's no other way. I`ve tried it in every single gameplay, even creating a new one, and the bug stays, No matter if you move a family into the ap or just want to renovate it being empty. I've got rid of mods, repaired, reinstalled... nothing seems to work.
What do you expect to see? I expect to be able to bulldoze and renovate it normally as I can do with any other apartment (so far, don't know if I'll get this same problem in any other apartments soon...)

Bulldozing/Renovating problems on Zenview, 702 apartment.
June 2020

I had the same problem and I have discovered a work around solution to use until EA fixes this bug.
Solution:
1) Bulldoze 701 ZenView. 🔴 Yes I said 701. For some reason this is where the bug is stemming from. 🔴 Don't forget to save a file of your current/default build from 701 before bulldozing so that you don't lose it. If for some reason you forget, I am placing a save file on gallery for uploading of the original apartment for 701 and 702 ZenView first and second floors within the next 24 hours (June 28, 2020). My EA Account ID is Nikquin.
2) Go back to 702 ZenView and now you can edit/build the apartment. 🔴 You may need to build your 2nd floor before being able to place any stairs because for some reason there are ceilings missing from the 1st floor and flooring missing from the 2nd floor. 🔴
3) Go back to 701 ZenView and now edit/build the apartment. 🔴 Again, You may need to build your 2nd floor before being able to place any stairs because for some reason there are ceilings missing from the 1st floor and flooring missing from the 2nd floor. 🔴
