I agree, make it an engineer specific ability, and then it increases the need to include Engineers in your army. This way, it provides a special unit, with a unique tactical benefit.

I'd allow ONLY engineers to do that. Buildings can quite easily withstand several tank main gun rounds with their structural integrity not compromised, the only effect being a large hole on the wall. I can see engineers, with specialized demolition charges AND the training to know where to place them, to be able to bring down buildings but regular infantry would need a truckload of grenades and a lot of luck to bring down a large building.
