So much nonsense in this thread. The first thing that needs to be clarified is that NO religious building was or is being destroyed. Old houses and buildings around the haram are being bought and cleared by the government to make room for facilites for hajj and umrah. There has been clearing of sahaba graves in the past but that's to prevent idolatry and grave worshipping(considered polytheism by Islam) that is so wide spread in some muslim countries specially where shiasim and sufism is widespread. No one can dare touch the prophet's tomb, that's nonsense, you can come to Madinah to visit it. I agree that many historical building have been unnecessarily destroyed, but 1) they hold no religious value and 2) as I said before, we do what ever we want in Mecca and Madinah.
No, one worships graves with exceptions of a few Jahils. You need to do some reading about Sufism, you've got it all wrong [Please avoid Wikipedia].
