I suppose this doesn't qualify as a skyscraper, but it's still tragic, for me anyways.
This is the Saginaw County Courthouse, destroyed in the height of the urban renewal of the 70s to make way for a monstrosity that did nothing but uglify what once was a beautiful city--they worsened it with the destruction of blocks upon blocks of downtown buildings to make way for now vacant buildings or empty lots, and of course the number of old houses they razed would make you sick.
