In many cities, there is a lack of space to develop and as a result, in order to modernize, old buildings are demolished and replaced with new buildings. What are the disadvantages of knocking down old buildings? Do the advantages outweigh the disadvantages?

With constant development in urban areas, our disposable spaces in the

city

limit are gradually becoming insufficient, for

further

construction, some obsolete buildings suggested to be destroyed.

While

knocking down buildings might lead to traffic jams and ruin the historical heritage, I still believe

such

disadvantages are outweighed by the advantages.

To begin

with, knocking down the old building and reconstructing might cause serious traffic congestion in the

city

for a certain period. It usually takes a long time to design and rebuild the areas, and

this

will inevitably affect the resident’s life by causing inconvenience with their commute time to work.

In addition

, urban renewal may destroy the ancient sites as well. In Tainan County,

for instance

, the reason that their urban development is making no progress is because there are several historical sites existing underground at

this

moment,

although

broadening their

city

's extent by excavating some ancient building is necessary sometimes, their urban development keep interrupted by their innate geographical location. With

this

fact, some of the historical sites are demolished by urban renewal, and

finally

, they all disappear permanently.

On the other hand

, even though modernizing the

city

has several drawbacks, they are not insurmountable and are outweighed by the following advantages. Despite the traffic jams can cause inconvenience to the inhabitants, with complete arrangement and planning, Residents will enjoy a better cityscape with just a temporary bothering,

furthermore

, earn a reputation worldwide with their engagement in urban renewal.

Moreover

, though it might lose some historical heritage by developing the

city

, it is undeniable that our

city

will possess more available spaces for developing our territory.

Subsequently

, helping us to pursue a better quality of life.

To sum up

, there are some visible cons to the modernization.

However

, with proper management of

city

renewal, residents

are not

enhance their quality of life by updating urban facilities, in that case, I believe the advantages outweigh the drawbacks.
