once again, money over beauty and preservation
It appears, without much effort, the value of monetary gain has again overtaken the aspect of preserving heritage and artifacts of design, beauty and innovation. Again, people have more concern over their contemporary satisfaction, getting all they may from changing the past to suit the "now" and without respect for history or taking into account the destruction of what cannot be replaced. All in the name of "change" and "moving forward". Yes, it is very possible to go into the future on all planes, but to destroy the past and present doing so..... have we, as humans all over this world, not learned anything from mistakes of those before?
