I'd suggest an exception for historically important buildings. Otherwise, we could lose some exceptional stuff like the 1877 Marcus Garvey Building (Liberty Hall), the oldest commercial building in Oakland, ("Souley Vegan") and the former Western Pacific station around the corner, complicate efforts to preserve what's left of the Seventh St. blues district, among many others.
