The commercial real estate owners are also to blame. They used to have to build out the office space to a tenants wishes to attract tenants. It is much cheaper and easier for them to take out the walls/offices and tell the clients to furnish it how you want. While open offices are cool and there are more tenants than space, the owners refuse to do anything else.
