That's certainly possible but why is he tearing shit down so soon before finalizing any construction arrangements? People could be still living in those homes in the meantime. Unless he doesn't feel like land-lording and wants to save the money on property taxes since a house is valued much higher than an empty lot. But then perhaps a vacant lot tax can help counter that.

Don't ask people not to debate a topic. Just stop making debatable assertions. Problem solved.
