Closed Hospitals?

There was a hospital on jefferson not too far from downtown...a 2 or 3 story light colored brick building...I was a patient there in the early 70's. I believe it was called Riverside.

That was Alexander Blain Hospital.

That was Alexander Blain Hospital.

I'm not sure when Blain closed as a hospital, but after sitting vacant for however long, it eventually was repurposed in the late 1990s. for many years it housed a social services nonprofit, a Concentra medical clinic, a foot physician [[in the adjacent smaller building), a chiropractor's office, and the Detroit Police's Gaming [[casino) division had their headquarters there. It's all vacant again, but you can still see the signage for the most recent tenants.
