The first and last of your links look like reasonable scratch build projects with a little planning and patience. For the other three, you'd need to be as talented as SIRT. Pecos River used to make some large O scale commercial building kits and you can sometimes find them on eBay. Of course, there are other O scale kit manufacturers like Model Tech, Bar Mills, etc. but if you're looking for pricing in the Ameritowne range, most of their offerings wouldn't suffice. But, many of them are certainly nice.
For smaller wood buildings, I've often used the designs from some of the HO manufacturers (like Foslimited who makes some incredibly creative buildings, albeit all HO) and scratch build them to O scale dimensions. It would be nice if Woodland Scenics did some downtown buildings like those of City Classics (HO scale), etc. but that doesn't seem to be in the cards. However, if those three recent built-ups/weathered buildings they've released are successful, maybe they'll venture out for some additional projects.
