Their interest is money
do you think developers give a shit about keeping history intact? It's possible to restore and develop things into more functional usage and still keep features/history, but it's not cheap and so it doesn't happen

Yes, definatly, to maximise profit.
You're right, history is a secondry consideration, but it still is one; why buy a castle, knock it down, and build appartments when you can just buy a field and do the same? The history (well, more so, the architecture), is a unique selling point that makes it a financially good thing... it's a possative catch-22.
