My City: Day 436: Postcard

The Senator Restaurant. The house was built in 1860 and in 1926 it was purchased by the Salvation Army...read more about it here.

Did you know that the Salvation Army owns houses in the U.S. with a total value of about $4 billion as of 2008. The $4 billion is the total estimated value of all the charity's real estate holdings in the U.S., including commercial real estate.

No idea what it is in Canada...but I am sure it is large as well. Seems to me that a lot of those dollars going into Christmas kettles are not making their way to the intended purpose.
