‘So many desks are’

Hello, everyone,

(1) There are so many desks in the office that it’s difficult to walk around.

(2) So many desks are in the office that it’s difficult to walk around.

Is the sentence (2) still grammatically correct, if I change (1) above into (2)? The point of my question is if the noun phrase - “so many(much) noun(s)” of “so adjective/adverb that ~ ” construction could function as a subject.

Would hope to hear your valuable opinions.
