Lighter side: Further back in history, what we now call "buildings" were indeed called "builts". Builders were satisfied with this title and thought it only made sense until they realized it was causing too much confusion amongst civilians. For example, when people called their parents about their trips to New York, the puzzlement was endless.
"Hey, mom. It's me. I can't believe I'm actually glancing at the Empire State Built."
"The Empire State Built what?"
"The Empire State Built..."
"Built what? Built house? Built bridge?"
"No, the Built!"
"Built what!?"
After dealing with years of families breaking up because of simple misunderstandings, the term for "builts" was finally officially changed to "buildings" instead. As it turned out, the word buildings left people less inclined to asking about the buildings themselves since they thought by it not yet being finished and still in the "building" process, whoever they asked might not have a clue to what was being built.

What is it called when you are exempt from a law because you already had something that that law makes illegal?
I believe you are talking about "grandfathering." For example, if a law is passed requiring buildings to have handicap ramps, but you already built a building that doesn't have one, then your building is grandfathered and is not required to have a ramp.
