The high rise residential (assisted living?) also creates a big swath of dead wating to die space.

For this statement made it does not  create a place for the people to live and waiting to die.  You do not know these people.  They have to have a place to live too.   If that is the case then everyone in the world that lives in a place is waiting to die.    Think about even you are in a place to wait to die.

Due to the people that lives in these places does get out to shop or eat at the places on Edgewood Ave S and on Post Street  past the Moon River area.  These people does need a place to live and be able to afford to live.  They also have different activities for the people in these places to attend.  So it is not a BIG SWATH OF DEAD SPACE. 

I think you are misunderstanding what I said, understandably due to NRW's tasteless ( :P) joke. I am not claiming that that block of the street is nothing but dead people (a cemetery would be this), I was commenting that it is dead space on the street level. The building may be providing a valuable service (though it could be anywhere, and the building style belongs in St Johns County), but it does not interact with the street well. This creates a problem for the usability of the street. An unintended consequence maybe, but a consequence nonetheless.
