Well of course, who can afford the rent? It's not like a little four-employee computer repair shop can show up and fill the space.

Even if the rent was subsidized or more likely rent-controlled -- you still have to pay those four employees enough to live in commute range. That forces the margins you have to charge for computer repairs to shot up to a level that would make the Geek Squad blush.
