The Montfort Missionaries sold their former seminary in Bay Shore, New York, to the United American Muslim Association for $5.2 million. The 15-acre property was previously slated to sold to an assisted-living facility company, but the planned sale encountered vocal local opposition.
The Montfort Missionaries bade farewell to the property in April, after a century of presence there.
The United American Muslim Association plans to open a boarding school at the former seminary.
