This topic has died down for some time now, but I feel that it should be voiced again. I understand the reason behind locking that when playing in normal Live Mode. However, I ask the studio to let us edit the space outside the active apartment in Manage Worlds or at least through a cheat code.
Just look at these:
What is it with the alignment of windows? And why is there an edge-bricks wallpaper in the middle of the wall?
There’s a missing window.
Please, just please, let us edit the public space in apartments.

Stop! Don't give them ideas to charge us money for something that could easily be given in an update—wait, never mind, they already do that quite often.
City Living is absolutely about apartments, I agree! Regardless, the EA/Maxis party-line response says that it isn't. Never mind that there's nothing else in that expansion that has anything else to do with living in the city. We're supposed to pretend that the two concepts of city living and apartment living aren't connected.
Ridiculous excuses notwithstanding, it's pretty obvious that EA/Maxis is breaking every theme into pieces and selling the pieces separately. If EA/Maxis doesn't intend to sell custom apartments (cars, bands, singers, bunkbeds, spiral stairs, personalities) later, they probably aren't possible this time around.
Oh yes, they gave us one free neighborhood and ultimately that feature became an paid feature minus the end-user ability to alter the neighborhood or create their own, all for the love of money.
