Sanctuaries

History
Below is a list of known Sanctuaries. Details can be found on individual Sanctuary article pages.

Closures
The closure of multiple Sanctuaries presents an issue in that even just one closure would be too big to hide, especially from the Network's own employees. This is contrary to what the show displays. In, Will (Magnus's protégé and the supposed second-in-command of the Network) is clearly unaware that any closures have occurred based on the opening dialogue. In, Will gets access to SCIU's database monitoring the Sanctuary Network and it's properties and learns about multiple house closures. Will not being in the loop can assumedly be attributed to Feliz creating false reports for him to read, passed along by Magnus herself.

However, what is overlooked / ignored by the writers is that it is highly unlikely that none of the employees at those Sanctuaries would never have made any mention of the closures and or about having been recently separated / unemployed from the Sanctuary Network to any other Sanctuary Network team member. Realistically, Will (as well as Declan at the London Sanctuary and the unnamed head of the New York Sanctuary - the final 3 surface Sanctuaries) would have had some sort of communication in the past 8 months with members of these closed Sanctuaries. Henry would have also noticed any changes in addresses of shipments / transfers from these closed Sanctuaries to Old City as well.


 * Speculation: In order to get around this problem, it indicates that Magnus would have kept some (at the very least the head of house), or all, of those employees and potentially had them sign or agree to an NDA of sorts about their current operations and the location they were based out of. Had they continued to work on the surface, they would have had to have at least one meeting location to drop abnormals off for collection, such as a safe house. It's unlikely that all of these employees would opt (if invited at all) to move and live at the Underground Sanctuary. Considering that the majority of abnormals are located on the surface, just because the local housing facility is closed, it doesn't mean that the need to have locally based staff goes away.
