The city shapes might stay more or less the same but new animations, new areas might be created. The textures and looks might change. The music might change. There are hundreds of things they could do to the cities that entail "Not completely rebuilding from the ground up."

Everyone needs to relax and wait to see what they have in store. If, when they release some info on the changes being made, the cities are shown as being exactly the same, as if someone just pulled them out of the game and placed them back in to the new maps creating some sort of anachronistic nightmare, then feel free to start making petitions. Until then, chill. We have no idea what they have in store for the cities.
But we do know for sure that they won't be doing a complete redesign from the ground up. Yoshi said so himself, per Rukkirri's post.

We do know that they *might* (Rukkirri's/Yoshi's word, not mine) make changes to some locations that are inconvenient or frustrating. Not only is that a vague comment to begin with, but using the word "might" means we can't even depend on some changes being made at all, even if they really should/could be.

Based on Yoshi's statements, per Rukkirri's post, it's safe to say that SE won't be doing as much as people hoped they would.
