Sometimes the images of the orgs are just too shiny and perfect for real life. Golden Era Products has some top of the line CAD software for generating those images even before the renovations have started, and that might explain the lack of people in the images. (Mind you, lack of people is a pretty good explanation for lack of people too.)

For the Cambridge org, they had a computer-generated outside image that had Dianetics and Scientology logos that weren&#039;t in the real life pictures. Oops!]]></description>
