Wes,
Are the Mackies considered rear ported speakers? They do not have an actual port, rather a passive radiator that moves sympathetically to the real speaker. Don't know much about speaker design, but I assume this acts as the port.

I had considered flush mount, and would love to do it. But that would take a lot more research time and I would not be able to use my current monitors. (I asked Mackie and they said nope.) However, my monitors do have an "acoustic switch" for being placed at 1/2 space and 1/4 space close to walls. Doesn't seem like the most technical solution to me, but would it work in this situation?

Here is a more detailed dimension of the studio. The outer edges represent the total amount of empty space I have right now, the space is square.
