The episode "Main Street U.S.A." (telecast: 23 January 1967) of "The Lucy Show" comes to mind. Developers wanting to tear down a beautiful main street to make way for "modern" soulless development. Probably the closest Lucille Ball ever got to dealing with a political issue....
I forget the name of the film, but there's a public domain 1940s film about a man trying to save a Confederate-era building (either town hall or courthouse, I forget which) from being torn down.
EDIT: the above film is Colonel Effingham's Raid (it took about 10 minutes of searching to find the name). Not sure how eligible it is for this thread, been years since I saw it....
