Conservation

The building is reported to have become derelict and under threat of demolition when listed in the 1990s.[2]

gollark: Framing it as "we must defeat these enemies who do things which are bad" seems like it could lead to problems.
gollark: Also, I feel like framing all problems/issues/whatever as conflicts/"wars" is... unhelpful.
gollark: That's bizarre.
gollark: Er, because people... have problems... which exist... in the short-term?
gollark: Just magically improve things.
