I'm pretty sure we've had this conversion before, where I pointed out OSM is not a historical record. If gone in the real world,it should be removed from OSM. If you wish to store out date info, transfer it to Open History Map.

Seeing OSM is a global endeavour it's disappointing you keep repeat 'Around here...' as if Nottingham is somehow different & special when compare with elsewhere.

Around here (Nottingham) we generally put something like demolished: building=* on the old way. Particular ly useful if you have several active mappers not all knowing about recent demolitions.

    How different is the footprint of the new building?

    I would think that the new building will be of a similar size to
    the old one - given the planing permissions.

    So unless you intend to put in the new building .. I would leave
    it alone - that gives at least an indication that there is a
    building there.

    Add a note to say it has been replaced with something similar?
