I guess, kinda, but the concept of "ownership" isn't the divine right of kings. It's an understanding of possession in relation to the rest of the world and other people. There are like zoning laws and shit like that for a reason, just because you buy a piece of land doesn't mean you can develop it into whatever you want and put a chemical processing plant in a residential neighborhood.
Just because you bought an apartment and maintain exclusive ownership of it, it's in the context of someone else owning the building, and someone/thing further owning the area that building is in. Ownership doesn't give you any right to alter something in a way that affects the other peoples owned property or possessions.
Not that I'm advocating that it's right or even a good thing, but essentially the "final boss" of ownership is the government because people can't be trusted not to be petty dicks to each other
