my desk is a mess...

Walked past this on Saturday and did a double-take.

For sale? What?!? And with a big sign and phone number, meaning I, one Amy Timberlake, could make an inquiry. Hey, maybe next week they'll have an open house.

Then I had another thought: do everyday, normal people EVER stroll by cathedrals thinking 'Just imagine -- my own sacristy'?

But it's true. I found this in "Chicago Real Estate Daily":  

Colliers tapped to sell Scottish Rite Cathedral

Colliers Bennett & Kahnweiler Inc. has been hired to market the historic Scottish Rite Cathedral, one of few buildings that predate the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. An official asking price hasn’t been set, but the property, at 929 N. Dearborn St. in the landmark Washington Square District, is projected to draw bids around $4 million, says Mike Senner, a senior vice-president with the Rosemont brokerage. The property is part of Walton on the Park, a mixed-use project developed as a joint venture by two Chicago-based companies, Enterprise Cos. and Mesirow Financial Real Estate. The 30,600-square-foot cathedral, constructed between 1869 and 1873, was known as the UnityChurch until the Scottish Rite fraternal organization acquired it in 1911. Likely buyers include religious organizations and performing arts groups, which would benefit from the stage area and stadium seating for 700, Mr. Senner says.
