I think you mean the building to the North of the pyramid? The one that looks like that wicked church out in France, but done in a modern/ early brutalist motif?

If that is the one to be saved, I have some questions with the historical application then. From what I learnt, the pyramid portion was built in '77. The other portion was the original building built in '54. Therefore, wouldn't it fall under historical age status as it is older then 1960?
