there's that older yellow brick building and st. regis; there is the shorter and older salt house bldg and 555 mission; the shorter and older 121 second st and taller 101 second street etc. so i guess the question is how much is enough before one becomes no better than sue hestor or supervisor daly?
That would only be a salient question if the owners refused to sell because of aesthetic reasons. Since that is not the case, your question--and your line of argumentation--is entirely out in left field.
