Like you, some people complained when the Baron Haussmann transformed Paris or when Eiffel erected his Tower, or when the Louvre Pyramid was built. I see it as an opportunity to make it better. All buildings in Europe that have survived this long have evolved over the centuries. The Mezquita in Cordoba is also a great example with a mosque built around a cathedral.

Yeah, and a some of us are still annoyed that Mussolini razed a neighborhood and destroyed Rome just to build a modern boulevard.
