BINGHAMTON, N.Y. — The Salvation Army of Binghamton recently purchased a building on Walnut Street that will serve as its new base of operations, replacing its current location on Washington Street, the organization announced.
The new site is one that better serves the community, the not-for-profit contends.
“This move will place our operations in the heart of our city and will allow us to expand our current programs and services to best serve those most in need,” Salvation Army Captain Joseph Hansen said in a news release. “This new location will specifically allow us to expand our food service to those in need in our community and to hopefully add new youth programming.”

According to Broome County’s online property records, the Salvation Army bought the building at 83 Walnut St. from Luciano Piccirilli for $515,000. The sale closed on Dec. 11, 2023.
The organization currently provides a food and hygiene pantry, breakfast and dinner programs, comprehensive care-management services, worship services, and Christmas assistance for local families.
The timeline of the move is still a work in progress, but Hansen said the current plan is to move to the new location in the coming months and then sell the Salvation Army’s building at 127-130 Washington St.
“We are very excited about the new facility,” Salvation Army of Binghamton Board Chair Bill Ritter said. “The programs and services will finally have the space necessary to handle an already increased need. This is a win for the Salvation Army and a bigger win for our community.”
The Salvation Army operates 7,600 centers around the country, helping more than 23 million people annually with food, emergency disaster relief, rehabilitation services, clothing, and shelter.
