I could see them become common if there is a land marked structure nearby and the dimensions of an assemblage either surround it or form a sort of T-Shaped. It really depends on the aim and specs of the design and the intention.
Also, to use all of the air rights from an adjacent parcel (if sold by the untouchable structure's owner or administration in question) without damaging or touching "X" land marked structure.
As a side note, landmark structures can be modified or incorporated into a new structure... BUT... it must be approved by the Landmarks Preservation Commission. Which depending on the property, may or may not be an easy thing to do.
