Not quite sure what you mean with hang from it; the asteroid would attract the building (much less so than Earth does, but still), so the asteroid would be "downward" for anybody close to the asteroid.In principle there is no reason why you couldn't build something on an asteroid, but that would not "hang... from the asteroid".

How is an asteroid released from the asteroid belt?

Usually by another asteroid moving through the belt and hitting one, creating a force to move an asteroid from its orbit. Also, if a large enough asteroid passes by, it is possible that the gravity that it generates could pull a few off.

What consequences can result from an asteroid impact?

Many things can happen if an asteroid hit the earth. Here is a list of a few consequences. There could be an explosion when the asteroid hits the earth. There could also be a tsunami if the asteroid landed in the water. Another possible consequence is a global firestorm. Another possible problem is Acid Rain. The last and final problem from this small list is temperature effects.


Where was the last asteroid hit on earth?

There was one significant asteroid impact in 1908 - the Tunguska event. It is possible that smaller asteroids hit Earth after that. There was a smaller asteroid/meteor impact more recently - the Chelyabinsk event in 2013.
