I will assume that you will also complain that housing is too exspensive, not enough is available and be the first to scream if someone tried to keep you from earning a living. My assumption is off of your statement. The developers PAID 12 million for the property and a non-tiki, abandoned building is standing in the way of completing a project. If someone wanted to preserve this why didn't they do it before now? It has been a eye sore and abandoned for years.
If you look at the facts, Real Estate companies SELL property, Developers, develop properties and Builders build them, trust me there is no short haul and instant profits in real estate, development or building. The latter two are the most regulated industries in the country. For example; Developers are required to give houses to the poor, let's see the auto industry do that or the airlines or...?
We don't want to see important properties lost but if it's that important to someone, they can cough up 12 million and do what they want.
But to slam any group of people like that...without knowing the facts...play nicer please.
BTW, I am a developer/builder so I am biased, however I also know the facts, just try to get a building permit, you'll know what I mean.
