I guess fundamentally it comes down to the choice: site cleared of dereliction, and used for development, or refurbish and re-purpose what is there. And I guess the beneficiaries of either outcome might not be the same people, and similarly in respect of whoever ends up footing the bill. It is not too far removed from the current topical debate concerning why UK can no longer economically replace and develop its failing infrastructure!
