Residential could work if the design/access was done well enough.. there's so many people that drive to the General that there's actually a shuttle bus for those parking really far away... and people will do the shuttle and THEN drive home.

But nothing around besides parts of the Bayfront area is nice enough for most people to consider living in - homes are huge for single people to buy, and proximity to good schools and neighbours if they have kids is questionable.

I'm sure it would take a huge amount of remediation, but the building directly north of the hospital could undergo some sort of loft conversion as well. Get the right kind of barrier between that Burlington Street...
