The seller was Legion of Christ, Inc. and the property is at 582 Columbus Ave., in the town of Mount Pleasant. The amount was not disclosed.

The sale is of two buildings on 97 acres, comprising a portion of the Thornwood Conference Center, a corporate conference center on roughly 264 acres that was formerly an IBM conference center. The Legionaires of Christ purchased the property in 1996 to use as its seminary.
