There are some very clear examples of properties that meet this criteria, Oliver Lodge, The Inn in Smith Cove, the big concrete monster in the Weirs channel, the Swallow boathouse, so when do they get torn down? You and I both know they won't, because the rules are anything but consistent. The whole grandfathering thing is a squirrely to begin with, why does Fays boat yard get to control half of Smith Cove, just because he built his stuff faster than anyone else in the cove.
