Resolution: Resolved for public label as closed / historical; do not display as green/independent.This is a closure overlay dossier. Current property ownership and any future reuse require fresh source review before changing the marker.
No current hospital operator agreement was found in this pass.
No reopened emergency department or inpatient-service source was found.
Current Chariot Equities / Allaire Health Services ownership is treated as property/redevelopment context, not a PE hospital-ownership claim.
