"little more of a sign of" ???

Hi all,

I wonder how you'd phrase this sentence:

"Construction of dangerous buildings are little more a sign of prosperity than the land grabs used to build them."

"Construction of dangerous buildings are little more of a sign of prosperity than the land grabs used to build them."

Or perhaps a third way instead?

The point is that the construction does suggest greater prosperity, but not a lot more, with emphasis on the latter.

Thanks!
