In my home town for one such project they came up with a really cool alternative. The basement of the building is encased in glass and you can go see the ruins. Little museum and everything.

And the building, or underground parking lot I think, still got built.

That’s what Apple had to do with its main Puerta del Sol store in Madrid: https://www.theverge.com/2013/7/10/4512318/apple-store-spain...

That's what happened with the new Bloomberg HQ in London. It's a nice museum underground.

It's been pretty amazing walking past that site everyday seeing the pictures of the artefacts on the hoardings. Now it's all done, I keep meaning to visit the museum.

For people who have NO idea what was under the new Bloomberg HQ in London, here's a link:

When I visited Bologna, I found that their main library is that way -- they have a glass floor over the excavations below.
