Ugly or not it is really just math with the trees as far as the DES and shorelands protection act lays it out.

50 ft from shore you need 50 pts in a 50' x 50' area starting at the northerly or easterly boundry of the property (circumfrance of tree defines how many points you get for that particular tree)

I don't know how wide the property is but there appear to be a bunch of trees on the edges and shore area. Not saying it looks pretty but they may have left enough to pass the points test and still give themselves a view. The sections up to 150 ft from shore and then 250 need a certain percentage left unaltered, again, not knowing where the edges of the property are, maybe they left all of the side area unaltered.

Project may have been developed prior to July 1 2008, if so scrap the above info....

According to the DES info, style and design preference is not regulated
