The Fort Harrison Hotel serves as the flagship building of Flag Land Base , the Church Of Scientology 's spiritual headquarters in Clearwater, Florida . First opened in 1926 , the hotel served for many years as Clearwater's most luxurious hotel. It was a focal point of the community during the Great Depression and World War II . The hotel began to fall into disrepair by the 1970s . In 1975 , the Church Of Scientology purchased the building and began its restoration. In the 1980s , the building was brought back into a state of good repair including restoration of its marble floors and Art Deco details and craftmanship. It provides luxurious accommodations and course and auditing rooms for parishioners studying at high levels of Scientology . In the future, the Fort Harrison Hotel will be joined by a walkway to a new addition of the complex of buildings which the Church of Scientology owns. LISA MCPHERSON In . TRIVIA
