Is it really this hard to grasp people? When the kitchen in your house needs updating do you tear down the whole house and build a new one? So why exactly is it necessary to tear down these prewar buildings?

That is such a positive attitude. I completely agree. Yes, many of the old buildings need work and modernising inside, but that is a much better option that totally knocking them down and building another glass box in it's place.
Whilst I do love and appreciate the beauty in many glass boxes, it is the old stone buildings in NYC that give it so much character and charm. It would be a terrible shame to lose these.
