The question is that architecture (or its demolition) is not the produce of architects, but social one. We live in societies where economical throughput is promoted to such levels that to think still has some focus on whatever concerned architects would gladly call architecture would amount to lunacy. We live in a world more of the merchants of plans derided by Frank Lloyd Wright than of care about the environment, housing, cities and towns part of it. Hence it is not surprising that from marginal focus only occasional interest derives. The task of more integrally focusing in what best to do remains far in the horizon.
