Is this sentence correct?
1) I found the sight of demolishing old buildings fascinating.
Logically it seems fine, although the fact that the gerund doesn't have an agent makes the sentence look a bit strange to me. I think it is just me though. I'd prefer: "I found the sight of old buildings being demolished fascinating." But I think #1 is fine too.
