Capitalism is based on "survival of the fittest". The north end of TV has been surrounded by hundreds of eating establishments (competitors). The demographics of the area has changed (older average age). If paying customers had patronized KB in sufficient numbers, it would still be there. Same for Hacienda Hills Country Club.
Apartments are a far better alternative than vacancy. Many communities around the country are now realizing that "mixed use zoning" is being embraced widely. My residential neighborhood when growing up had small commercial establishments scattered throughout.
