Interesting, non-Mpls-specific story in the Strib today about how, statewide, the number of preschoolers are dropping while the number of oldsters is rising.

http://www.startribune.com/stories/462/4654710.html

It brings up a natural re-use for soon-to-be-shuttered Minneapolis schools: as senior housing, or mixed housing with a large senior component.

My sense is that many city neighborhoods don't have enough workable alternative housing for seniors who wish to remain there. Is it logical to suggest that many schools could naturally help solve this problem?
