Re-Use

Is the best way to convert an office bldg. to condos to slap on glass panels & a few lines of paint while renting space on the ground floor in back to a Staples?

The "in the back" concept is not as relevant here as in other urban hellholes: In car-driven Los Angeles everyonemost consuming sheep drive through an alley to the back (PARKING IN REAR!) & enter through what would be the back door/delivery entrance in less parking space-challenged cities. This is extra-amusing to pedestrian us, as we get the impression that many store owners go for months w/o realizing how grubby the "fronts" of their retail establishments are.
