This is prime ground level commercial space that could/should have been used for something that the community could use on a more daily/weekly basis. The average American visits a Dr. 4x a year where an elevator ride once a quarter shouldn’t be an issue (They even have to glaze over the ground floor windows for patient privacy…what’s the point!). Just disappointed that seemingly the only tenants that can afford convenient commercial space are chains or healthcare providers.
