Long Island Gets a Building
March 18, 2024 By Mike Rinder 6 Comments

An article last week announced scientology’s purchase of a property on Long Island.
Long Island has been one of the long-term tiny, failed scientology orgs that has never amounted to anything.
Suddenly, they are flush with $15.2 million….
This is a sign that Miscavige is finally breaking down on the ideal org program. It’s been 20 years that his scam has been in place, and there are still plenty of orgs all over the world that have not even purchased a new building, let alone renovated it. There are also a dozen or so that purchased buildings years and years ago and are still not even started on their renovations. New Haven, Philly and Boston right there in the NE US.
Some of these orgs Miscavige knows will NEVER raise enough money to purchase a property. They have a small handful of staff and a few dozen public in total, all of whom were long ago bled dry. Eventually, if the charade of this program is going to be maintained, they’re just going to have to spend some of their stashed billions and buy the buildings. I have often said that if he was really serious about the Ideal Org program being the “solution to planetary clearing” (rather than a way of collecting more revenue) he would simply order the purchase and renovation of buildings for every existing org. Even if he spent $20 million per org, it would still be less than a billion dollars. And if these orgs really do expand 10.3 times the instant they become ideal (as they claim) then the revenue generated should be massive.
Of course, none of the claims about the expansion that ensues once Miscavige yanks his ribbon in front of the building bear any resemblance to reality. Which is why it takes so long for this program to roll out. Imagine if suddenly they had an “ideal world” — with all their existing orgs being “ideal” and absolutely nothing changed. Just like the 10,000 Solo NOTs target, it would be a case of the dog catching the car.
But it should give some encouragement to the other tiny, failing orgs that will never raise enough money to buy a building. Hang on long enough and big daddy will step in and buy it for you. Though there is no telling how long it will take to get it renovated and opened. New Haven has been sitting empty for more than 15 years.
A few details from the article (as you can see, this is another building with NO foot traffic anywhere near it in direct violation of Hubbard policy):
It’s a 62,500-square-foot office building on 5.5 acres at 263 Old Country Road, built in 1999, it has parking for about 250 vehicles. Public records list the property taxes on 263 Old Country Road at $285,065. Scientology has yet to apply for tax-exempt status on the property. CBRE did the purchase for scientology.
