Yes, please let us save these architecturally wonderful, density lacking, plain brick boxes that are in such exceptional states of repair.

We certainly should preserve them, despite that they haven't had successful storefronts in years, and are incredibly poor candidates for adaptive reuse. We also can't ever have them replaced with new higher density development, or greenfields that the area is desperately lacking. That might promote an urban agenda of walkability, better leverage our infrastructure and raise property values.
