Well, there's the other side of the coin that suggests that business owners sucking it up for a time benefit greatly on the other end. Theoretically this development would have been a boon for this restaurant. If the city were to compensate lost business during redevelopment, costs for development would shoot up and developers wouldn't bother with the area.

I wont argue about POV's level of quality. They fill a niche. There'll always be room in the market for companies like POV. Hate to be a dick, but if you didn't want to wake up next to a mechanical room, you (or whoever this happened to) should have looked at the plans before buying. Mechanical rooms aren't arbitrarily re-located during construction.
I'd be more pissed at the realtor/salesperson for not bringing it up.
And of course, at the end of the day, caveat emptor.
