Does anyone know what the Old Soldier's Home is currently being used for and its condition? Even better, has anyone been inside? Its an interesting building (being associated with Camp Douglas) and I would like to try and get in there.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

It was renovated a few years ago and is owned by the Archdiocese Of Chicago, who run it as the Cardinal Meyer Center. There was a later addition to the building on its south which was replaced with new construction, but the style was kept close to same as the original building.
