There are many dimensions to this issue, and apologies if my thoughts aren't perfectly formed! There is historical context of course, but there is the issue of a developer who seems to have significant power in this city, and so on.
We can argue all day long about the importance of this particular building, but the overarching factor, in my opinion, is Hamilton's chronic state of being one step behind.
People (at least those opinions I read on social media) are completely frustrated by things like this sneak attack on a property post-election, and the outsize power of developers. A building gets knocked down on Jackson, the developer briefly (?) had an illegal parking lot on the property. What is being built on it? I'm sure you could add to the list.
Just my $0.02
