If the file name already exists in the books directory, gnucash will create the new file in there with a number appended to the name. To find the proper file in book matching the building.gnucash file you just opened, it uses a unique book guid that's stored inside each of the files in the books directory. I don't know however how these unique id's are generated or how their uniqueness is guaranteed. So depending on how you make new gnucash files for each year, this may or may not work.
