Save space with a Holodeck
-
Like the one in Startrek, The Next Generation
You can have 20 buildings in the same space -- if you only need one at a time.
----
This option is probably feasible for many organizations. Want buildings? Put them in a rezzer or a holodeck. Rez them when you need them. When you don't need them, clear the space and use it for something else.
I have a demo holodeck system that has builds that could fill several sims-- all packed in a few prims. See the demo on Cookie estate (click on any of the post-signs):

Q&A
Q: Can I put existing builds into a holodeck?
A. Yes, if you own the build and all parts have copy permissions. You will want to have the parts linked into objects as much as possible, because you will have to handle each object. You will have to buy a pro level holodeck (about $10. USD) .
Q: Can I have a builder make the build for me?
A. Yes. You could require a holodeck version as part of the build job. Or (my recommendation) you could have the builder make the build and sell it to you for 0 Lindens. Then you could put it in your holodeck.
Q: Can I move it or put out a copy?
A. Yes to both. The build is packed in a 1 prim crate that you can copy. You can put that in a basic holodeck (1 prim), which will handle multiple builds and let people select by menu. You can put out multiple basic holodecks.
Q. Can I modify a build after I have made a holodeck version
A. Yes, but you have to make a new version.
