The fugly building erected at 9th and Smith Streets, right next to the old Russo Realty and Notary empire, is getting a spiritual tenant: the Center of Light. Correspondent Max Casey sniffed this one out and was panting while filing the report and photo. While brick would be more appropriate for the Man from Bricolage, here’s what their website says about them:

The Center of Light is a Mystical Christian school and community dedicated to consciousness, spiritual growth, and empowerment. Through practical instruction and divine experiences, hearts are healed, lives are transformed, and souls are awakened. At each of our fifteen Centers across the country, we offer daily meditation, sacraments, seminars, and classes that help seekers come into a direct relationship with God. We are happy you found us! Please contact us if you have questions or would like more information. You can click here to sign up to be on our email list. We have a vibrant spiritual community and offer many free events and gatherings. We hope to see you soon at the Center of Light!

And it’s right there when you get off the F Train or have an epiphany while waiting for the Ikea shuttle. How cool is that?

UPDATE: Brownstoner also had this a while back. We’re going to try to have a word or two with Max because there was no reason to pant about this one.
