DOWNTOWN BROOKLYN — It’s definite. Rumors can be laid to rest. The Watchtower Bible & Tract Society is moving its headquarters out of Brooklyn Heights and up to Warwick, N.Y.
“We have submitted a proposal to the Town of Warwick to build a complex there that we’re calling the World Headquarters of Jehovah’s Witnesses,” Richard Devine told the Eagle Tuesday. “We have started the land use process there.”
from the Brooklyn Eagle....
Well there you go! It's official.

I thought they were moving everything to Canada!!
It must be a sign of the end!!
Let's hope a sign of the end of the cult . . .
“The idea is since our printing complex moved up there, our facilities here don’t make as much sense,” said Devine about the move. “Also, it’s a change for us to build something brand new and eco-friendly from what we’re used to doing, which is accumulate properties and retrofit them.”
Must need the $$$$$
Thanks, Randy!
We can count on you for the straight dope ...
Take care!

It's good to see the WTS sell its assets to pay for operations!
Hmmmm, bet the yearly number of tourists (70,000) will drop significantly when they do.
After Century in Brooklyn, Watchtower Pulls Out of Heights.........
Over a hundred years of predicting the end is coming any day, and always being wrong. Will some view this as a defeat for the WT?
All that spending, building, remodeling in Brooklyn, and of course, all under JG's direction as they pointed out several times. And now he wants them out in the country and they can't sell the buildings?? Why didn't He tell them to sell when the market was hot? .......Or is he just testing them? ........Or maybe he's punishing them for grieving His spirit?
