But the places we all encounter that could only have a wheelchair ramp put in that intrudes into the public sidewalk (which neither the landlord nor the tenant owns, and now the sidewalk may not be sufficiently wide or accessible for a wheelchair), or that would require tearing down the storefront's façade (envision a storefront right up against the sidewalk), are grandfathered in.
