Without informing home owners, builders put up a muti story medical building. They claim they did but it certainly didn’t get to me or my neighbors. Thus destroying my beautiful view. The city will not allow me to add more rows of cinder blocks. Help!

Install a trellis on your side that is taller than the cinder blocks, plant a fast growing vine, or if the location allows, maybe a jasmine.
Does the city allow privacy fences? If so, do that. If they don't, maybe you and your neighbors can go to city hall for one of their meetings and ask for a variance for your neighborhood to allow more cinder blocks or a privacy fence because the builders did not share the plans with the nearby homes. Have them check for documentation of notifying the residents and asking for their input. If they didn't, perhaps the city can make them put up fences!
Here is a way to add a wood privacy fence to the top of your cinder block.

Get you and your fellow neighbors, and have an attorney write a letter that no notification of public hearings were held before the building was approved and/or change in land use plan to commerical from residential. Then settle for a large wall for all of you and they pay.
