Topic statementThe skylinesđường chân trời of cities around the world are changing rapidly as more modern buildings are being constructed, replacing older buildings, which require more money to renovatecải tiến and maintain. OpinionPersonally I feel that preserving older buildings is often a waste of money for various reasons.

Topic statementThere is no denying that it is worthwhilexứng đáng keeping certain old buildings. Supporting statementMany castleslâu đài and mansionsbiệt thựfor example, around the world are of great historical interestdi tích lịch sử and they deserve to be preservedbut in some cases old buildings are often overratedđánh giá quá caowhile many new buildings are undervaluedđịnh giá quá thấp. Supporting statementInstead of money being spent on improving them, many old buildings should have been demolishedphá hủy, because they are not fit for purpose. Supporting statementMany people like them for nostalgicnuối tiếc reasons, and there is no doubt that they are evocativeđể gợi lên of another era, but they are in many instancestrường hợp not very practical to work or live in.
