thedistrict84 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 On 7/8/2019 at 3:50 PM, cspwal said: Looks like it's at the corner of church and church The article that @Urbannizer posted describes the company as a “faith-based community development corporation.” It looks to be affiliated with Trinity East Methodist Church, the church immediately to the northwest. I wonder whether the fact that it’s “faith-based” carries any significance. If so, would there be tax considerations involved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
