It seems a lot of different small businesses received funds that I believed were for continuing operations and were then used instead for other things

Those government subsidies were issued months ago. They probably went through the $150,000 and now they can't afford to stay open. I would guess that they are negotiating with the landlord to find a way to stay in place until it's feasible to reopen.
