Buy the building then. Owners change and some are more friendly than
others. Why would someone ever place critical infrastructure at a site
without a solid agreement that prohibits removal, or at least making
them whole financially so they don't have to take it out on the next
person that comes along? I'd hate to be the poor customer that gets
treated as lesser class because a previous owner caused hurt feelings.
