Map Suggestion More Player-owned Businesses in the City

Suggestion Title: More Player-owned Businesses in the City
Suggestion Description: Adds more player-ownable shops in the city.

Why should this be added?:
With v6, the city is a lot more populated. However, I think having more shops would help even more, considering how close storage is to spawn. If we replace one or two of the NPC shops at spawn with player-ownable shops, we could see a lot more foot traffic in and around spawn, and hopefully an increase in roleplay

What negatives could this have?:
- If we replace one or two NPC shops, where do we put them?
- If we only add one or two player-owned shops, then these two will be consistently taken 99% of the time.

What problem would this suggestion solve?: Spawn feeling a bit empty (PD is a lot more popular by contrast)

Maybe Puffer Mart could be replaced. I don't see the point in it when you can get basically the same things from the petrol station across the road. Only negative I can think of is how close it is to City Shop.
Alternatively, the building behind the Hospital by the car park.

You already can, weve set up slums warehouse to be a large scaled furniture shop in the past. I dont agree with restricting shops to one thing only as a game mechanic

unfortunately players can and will raid that, not to mention that slums warehouse is pretty out of the way and has barely any foot traffic like the spawn/city hall area does
