I get that's not really how land acquisition works, but it still sucks
How do we know those houses are "perfectly fine"? Maybe they have a lot of structural or mold issues, or are in disrepair and not worth saving?

All of those "Homes" are actually commercial duplexes built in the 40's and 50's, just filler homes. This 7th and Grant building will be an improvement.
