What? Googles new office on 30th and pearl is hardly 'sprawling' - the target and wholefoods that are right next to it each take up a much bigger footprint than the office, and that is just the buildings themselves - Target and WF have surface parking which takes up huge amounts of real estate for almost zero value - whereas the Google building has 3 or 4 levels of parking underneath it, reducing their overall footprint.

Man, if only Google left this lot condemned and abandoned, along with the defunct car dealership across the corner which is just an empty lot. Boulder would be so much better off.

You can verify all this with the satellite photos and street view.

That's the problem: WF and Target pay minimum wages, and that seems to be OK with the OP. Paying more than minimum wages is the problem. S/he wants everyone to be poor.
