Want to Live in a Baseball Stadium or Spend the Night in an Airport Terminal?

I've heard of lots of differing building types being adaptively re-used for apartments and hotels such as prisons, churches, and factories which all result in cool, trendy, environmentally friendly places to live.

Recently though I learned about two of the coolest adaptive re-use projects I've ever heard of! One involves a baseball stadium in Indianapolis, IN and the other is the TWA terminal at JFK airport in New York City. The baseball stadium has been successfully turned into a mixed use development with loft apartments and the JFK terminal may soon be turned into a boutique hotel.

How cool would it be to live in a stadium or spend the night in a airport (at least when you're not waiting on a delayed flight!)?
