Now at first, your instinct might be that you should move the building to the site, and there's a certain amount of logic to that, makes a certain amount of sense, but because I'm in the building model file, I actually want to do the reverse. So I want to pick up this linked site model and I want to move it over to the correct location relative to the building. Now the reason why that's better is because by doing that, you're just simply moving the link. You're not actually changing anything in the site model.
