Some people believe that the restoration of old buildings costs too much; we should demolish them and build new ones instead. To what extent Do you agree or disagree?

Renovating old constructions is quite expensive and some people argue that these buildings should be replaced with the new one.

However

this

statement, because

such

buildings can be a source of income for a nation.

First

helps the citizen selling their local products like traditional clothes, statues and handmade, which ultimately increases the country revenue. Apart from that, old people often feel comfortable when living in old houses, as these homes are almost spacious with lots of greenery and natural environment. The benefits mentioned, lead a huge income to the country and

therefore

the government should not destroy ancient buildings but preserve them.

On the other hand

, the renovation of old buildings is useless because these are more spacious and additional stories cannot be built on its weak foundations.

Instead

of spending a huge budget on them, if they are demolished and construct some skyscrapers, it will easily occupy big corporations, offices and flats. They are safe with most facilities like air conditions , ambulances, fire alarms and WiFi. Admittedly, its safety measures and new architectural design lure the public to start entrepreneurship and reside in a modern building. Burj Khalifa,

, constructed by demolishing old buildings in the area. Millions of dollars were spent but its outcomes are absolutely positive. Local and foreign people are leasing the property for business and accommodation purposes and tourists enjoy taking snapshots with the landmark.

Nevertheless

, other old constructions should be demolished and replaced with facilitative and modernised constructions.
