Listing wouldn't necessarily prevent redevelopment, especially if the

I have worked on many projects in London where a listed facade was
retained to front a thoroughly modern building built behind it.
Indeed, but perhaps they are listed for their architectural interest in
/not/ having a rear, rather than the facade that pretends they do.
In any case, changes to listed buildings need Listed Buildings Consent. So
you need to convince TPTB to allow it, rather than being set in stone that
it's impossible.
