*My* skyscraper is a symbol of man's eternal struggle for greatness, a physical monument to human ingenuity, the struggle to allow our reach to exceed our grasp. YOUR skyscraper is a foul abomination, blotting out the sun and casting all into darkness, literally and metaphorically.

Believing that buildings have more negative than positive externalities is textbook NIMBYism.
