Eye and Ear infirmary has gone downhill over the years.
I don’t see what the fuss is about. It’s only eight blocks from Bellevue which for all its faults is a better hospital.

Mount Sinai Beth Israel Proceeds with Property Sale Amid Closure
The ongoing saga of Mount Sinai Beth Israel’s closure has taken a step forward as Mount Sinai Health System has sold two of its properties for approximately $34 million. The sold locations at 317 and 321 E. 17th Street, previously affiliated with the Gramercy campus, are reportedly officially bought by a shell company. According to deeds registered in the city register, the buying entity, 317 East 17th Street LLC, is tied to developer Joyland Management with an address corresponding to Joyland’s base in Brooklyn’s Gowanus neighborhood, as reported by Crain’s New York.

A hospital facility is becoming homes next to Mount Sinai Beth Israel’s shuttered Manhattan campus.
Borough Developers is at work on a 96-unit rental project on East 17th Street near First Avenue on a site that previously contained Fierman Hall, a nursing school-turned-office building, based on public documents.
The project, which was permitted by the Department of Buildings late last month, is believed to be the first example of a redevelopment of the multi-block site since Beth Israel turned off the lights after a lengthy and acrimonious closure process.
The redevelopment involves an existing 1966 structure, which will go from 12 to 13 stories as part of the 68,000-square-foot project, filings show. Eighty-seven of the units will be clustered on the part of the site once addressed as 313 E. 17th St., and nine units, all full-floor residences, will be located at the former 321 E. 17th St., according to the records. But both lots will be officially merged for the development and seem to have been connected internally and functioned as one building throughout their existence anyway. The mixed-use project will also feature a community facility, filings indicate.
Kao-Hwa Lee Architects designed the project, while the brokerage Real New York will handle leasing.
