Copy monitoring levels transferring elements

I have a structural model and an architectural model where in the architectural model, the levels are not copy monitored so I can see both levels in elevation view. The architectural model is fully modelled however now I want to copy monitor the structural levels and delete the architectural levels. however, when i go to delete the architectural model levels it says it will delete all the elements I have created. Is there any way I can move these elements to these new copy monitored levels or how does it work?

Do the levels have the same name?

Can you change the architectural levels to 'not building story' and the Structural to 'Building story' before deleting, is the geometry being saved?
Does that do anything?

Can you change the architectural levels to 'not building story' and the Structural to 'Building story' before deleting, is the geometry being saved? Yes, I did this and the geometry is still saved when changing over the building story tick mark
Does that do anything? 

I now want to delete the levels in the current architectural model, however when I go to delete, tells me I will delete all the geometry.. so it still doesnt solve my problem

Copy monitor levels is a step you do prior to model anything.  There no point doing it after you already created levels and model elements related to those levels.

It seems like the architecture levels can't be deleted without deleting the hosted objects.

 

Why not 'simply' align the architectural levels to the structural levels so they obtain the correct elevation.

This way the levels move and the objects hosted move with them.

If you don't want the objects to move but remain on the 'old' elevation you should not move the levels but simply hide them in your architectural model.
