This seems like a bad sign https://www.guelphtoday.com/local-news/mayor-mp-and-mpp-pen-letter-saying-they-dont-support-urban-park-at-this-time-8761864

If a hospital is actually what they're thinking of for that spot, that's unfortunate. Yes we need a new hospital, but it could definitely be in a better location and also not take up this potentially beautiful space with a hospital. They're generally big and ugly and will require a decent amount of parking. Pave paradise, put up a parking lot.
