RurbanWalker

I do urban walks, I do rural walks, but most importantly I do interesting walks of lesser explored neighborhoods and places that have stories to tell. Join my first person view walks while I share some history and insights on the areas and neighborhoods we see and experience together.

    I worked at Fort Harrison for 10 years, and it used to be much more open to the general public. During my time there, I witnessed many instances of people entering the property with ill intentions, causing trouble and whatnot. On many occasions, individuals, including members of the press attempted to get in with cameras. Unfortunately, this may have spoiled the experience for genuinely curious visitors. However, if you're interested in learning more, you are welcome to visit the receptionist and ask questions-just avoid aiming a camera at them while doing so.

    Scientology isn't a religion, it's a cult and it's designed to eventually deplete a persons like savings, they discard you on the street. There are quite a few senior Scientologist living on just social security and Medicaid in flop houses in the center of the city. They also own most of the flea bag motels surrounding the Ft Harrison Hotel, they use to house their green and brown jump suit inductees in them around 15-20 years ago. One thing about the rain, it keeps those black suited Gestapo storm troopers off the street.

    They are a cult anyone who knows a person connected to this Scientology "religion" knows what I say is true. L. Ron Hubbard was in the navy and must have undergone classified shock therapy where he then became insane and made this ideology with no other description now than a cult. They force you to give up everything you know and love, your financials, in the guise to find a higher life form. There is an episode on South Park that perfectly explains this idiocracy. Their belief system is one thing, but the deeper darker side of Scientology is terrible with the rapists, pedophiles, homophobes, etc. that call themselves apart of that organization. They own almost all of downtown Clearwater and their dormitories for the members have all blacked out windows. They all walk around in suits around downtown Clearwater with clipboards like they are an army of ants. Most of them are truly good people on the inside who are trying to be apart of something greater than themselves, but they do not understand the dark side of Scientology. The leaders are creeps . . .

    Waste of what used to be an amazing downtown. I'm 15 minutes away and I never go near the area except maybe for a show at Capitol Theatre. The whole city should be booming, but everything north of Court Street is a creepy ghost town full of intentionally vacant storefronts.

    Can the “city sue”… for separation of church and state..since real estate is not in use and causing a vacuum in revenue.. forcing services to be cut back for tax paying citizens of the city. maybe challenge their tax exempts status … How can it be a tax exempt organization when it is not open to the public to attend?
