>>Expecting a city skyline to never change is ridiculous. The only problem is that so few people use these buildings. The best kind of density regulation requires _more_ density.
You're right, yet there are many cities that still restrict building development in the name of protecting certain views.
One example is the City of Vancouver that has a page dedicated to explaining the views they are trying to protect for real estate zoning.[1]

- stjohnswarts 5y agoAustin, TX has laws dictating certain views of the state capitol building are not to be blocked. Personally I don't have an issue with it, there's still plenty of other views to block so the real estate people should be happy, but probably not land owners who would earn a lot more for their land if the laws didn't exist.
