A very similar law/policy exists in Venice for the preservation of the history of that city. Do you consider that to be 'stealing from the future'?

Venice is an exception because of how much of the city’s economy comes from tourism. There is an economic benefit that accrues to all property owners by maintaining a consistent historic look. That said, Venice is gross.
