The building became the single largest Mission of the Church. Following raids on the greater organization by the FBI in 1977, and reorganization to consolidate missions under Scientology Missions International in 1982, Corydon continued running the site as an independent Scientology group for several years before becoming disillusioned with the practice. Corydon fought a ten-year legal battle with the church over ownership of the building, which he won in 1992.The YMCA Building has been extensively remodeled by Corydon, and is owned by the Life Arts Center, a California for profit corporation, with Corydon as president. The facilities include halls available for rent, artists' studios, a gym, and a museum. " (from Wikipedia). Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket .
