Z Magic of Kau-Kan

It is a darn shame to see so much new construction go up on the edge of a cliff and block the beautiful view. Even worse when they are allowed to go up and block the view of a long-time business or home of a family that has lived there for many years. I just don't get how it's allowed to happen. There are many vacant buildings/properties that should be repaired/completed instead. What's up with that? Besides money talks.
