It's not at all radical, and the building was originally proposed to have retail at street level. It displaced retail uses, but likely not the types of businesses that would shell out for rent in a new building.
I don't think the developer ever gave any reasoning for subsequently eliminating the ground floor retail.
I agree that the ground floor units are likely to be the least attractive. Especially in this building: from the looks of it, they are extremely close to the sidewalk and street, with not much chance for screening.
