Greetings. You don't see me posting very often, but I do read the site frequently. My husband (who is an urban planner) came across a "blurb" in an engineering magazine. I have a scan of the blurb, but have no idea how to post. Anyway it says this:
New York: The Watchtower Bible & Tract Society is planning to build a new headquarters complex in Warwick. Totally 832,000 sq ft, the project encompasses 12 buildings, including a three to four story office building; a 195,000 sq ft place of worship. four five story multi-unit residental buildings totalling 400,000 sq ft; a 137,000 sq ft service building; a two-story 100,000 sq. ft maintenance building and 750 space underground parking garage. The architect is Perkins Eastman. The construction cost is estimated at more than $50 million. Watchtower Bible & Tract Society, 25 Columbia Heights, Brooklyn 11201. DR #10-00630075.

Just found it interesting looking at the dollar amount and wondering why they need a "new" complex.
