thats cuz building (referring to a structure of residence, office or enything really) is a noun.
When someone is building something its a verb and refers to the act of making a structure.
I think it just a coincedence that two word seem to have the same spelling and be talking about similar subject ("they are building a building" sounds weird statement, but if you say "they are building an office" then it doesn't sound weird because you have applied appropriate noun in the sentence)
Its like "the dove dove into the bushes", which is the act of a dove diving into bushes (the former dove is noun and latter is verb, weird when you see it, but not when you read it aloud)
best answer you gonna get, unlike some...he he

For the same reason you drive on the parkway and park in your driveway.

The structure may finished but if you change something about it its rebuilding so your still building.

a structure is never completely done even after construction, like a ant mound something is always going on.
