Also, I don't actually think Hahnemann will close for long, and I think any rumors of a demo are complete fantasy. I believe the state will rescue it and provide funding (much like they do for Temple) and have it operate under a different entity. Its possible another academic institution could absorb it, or Drexel could run it with state aid.

Secretly wishing Temple could take over this space and expand into center city. It'd never happen, but if it did, it could help Temple gain access to a pool of privately insured individuals which would help stabilize their budget.
