Could someone help provide a rundown of each of these answers? I found this question somewhat difficult. I chose answer D, but I don't see what's necessarily wrong with that compared to the actual answer. Thanks!

In option C, note that being is often incorrect on the GMAT.
Following are the scenarios in which it can be correct

1. as a noun
2. passive continuous verb tense - means that the action is currently going on.

In the given question, the buildings have already been built. Hence no need for being.
