Pluh-eeze! Druker cares nothing for the architectural integrity or the neighborhood. He is after all a developer and will do what he can to maximize his profits and allow him to build the biggest and most profitable building he can. Preservation be damned. The BRA has no credibility anywhere in Boston. Their checkered past, blatant corruption, ignoring the needs and desires of neighborhoods, and abuse of eminent domain laws have made them the villain they deserve to be in Boston.</p>
