Cults Out, College Kids in at the Divine Tracy Hotel

From cult to college?

No, this isn't the Rocky Horror Picture Show -- it's the Divine Tracy Hotel, where the DP reports that the Father Divine cult is packing up to make way for Penn students:

Where members of a tiny religious sect once stood singing hymns, students will soon rest in tanning beds and watch plasma-screen TVs.

The former Divine Tracy Hotel at 20 S. 36th St. has been sold for $9 million to Trammell Crow Co., which plans to transform the building into a student-friendly apartment complex with strikingly dorm-like amenities - including residential advisers, activities and even a dining hall and a meal plan.

But where will we find the religious wackjobs now?
