I'm a bit uneasy about the wording, especially the call to make it easier for developers to tear down less desirable buildings. Hopefully this results in a careful analysis of each building's historic worth and a full-fledged effort to maintain that area's atmosphere, instead of "Let's knock down half the neighborhood and build more thousand foot icicles! We gotta keep up with Dubai and Shanghai!"
