This is the best summary I could come up with:

Al Capone’s historic waterfront mansion in Florida, where the notorious gangster took his last breath in 1947, has itself been whacked, and preservationists are pointing to the state’s Republican governor, Ron DeSantis, as the hitman.

The owners of the 1922 Mediterranean-style villa and guest house, which had nine bedrooms and once boasted the city’s largest private swimming pool, moved quickly to obtain a demolition permit, ending a years-long campaign to save the residence at which Capone is said to have plotted the St Valentine’s Day massacre.

Observers say the law poses an unprecedented threat to Miami’s historic neighborhoods and skyline, with wealthy landowners and developers “salivating” at the opportunity to wipe away unprotected older buildings of character and architectural significance for soulless modern “McMansions”.

Its sponsor, the Republican state senator Bryan Avila, insisted the law was needed to hasten the removal of dangerous or worn-out buildings at risk of collapse, and was not intended to smooth a path for greedy developers.

The governor has previously asserted control in areas under the purview of other entities, including higher education, the drawing up of voting maps, mandating that municipalities keep burning fossil fuels; plus oversight of Disney, Florida’s largest private employer.

In its analysis of the law, Florida Politics notes that numerous iconic buildings and neighborhoods in and around Miami are now without protection, including the Art Deco design district, the Versace mansion on South Beach and the Delano hotel.
