• Real estate developer Sekisui House in Osaka, Japan, has announced that it will demolish a nearly completed new condominium building in Kunitachi, Tokyo Prefecture, because the structure is blocking neighbors' view of Mount Fuji.
United Press International reported that the 10-story building was just weeks away from opening to new residents.
"We were aware of the culture that values scenery, but we failed to consider it adequately," the company said.
People who had bought condos will be compensated financially, they said. [UPI, 6/11/2024]
