Too late. A developer bought the Divine Lorraine several years ago and converted it to luxury apartments. Apparently it's about 90% sold:

The Lorraine is much closer to downtown and is in an area that is rapidly gentrifying. Can't say that about the Boner 4 Ever neighborhood, but in a few years...?
