To play devil's advocate. If there's any building in the NE that would get heritage designation, it's Roxy and/or La Salle on Nairn. Otherwise there are no other buildings in the NE. Currently, there are zero with heritage designation. So there's not much to worry about in terms of every old building being designated heritage.
Roxy is part of the original group of theatres built around the time. Same with Academy. I think they actually announced the Academy building on stage at the Roxy. There is a bunch of old stuff still in the basement at Roxy. There's a nice article on the whole thing.
I'd be sad to see the Roxy go.
