For most of us, they could set up smallish rooms. If somebody like Fumar died, they could open an entire wing. And I suppose one could use the theatre for services if one chose to be buried straight from there. I'm not absolutely sure who owns Savannah, but I think it's the District. This could be a real money maker for us. Death is a growth business. There are people dying today who've never died before, and they've got to go somewhere.

And granted, there's that small private cemetery over in the Caroline area. but TV needs to look to the future. There's a very, very large plot of land one or two hundred yds down Buena Vista from Savannah. Don't know what it is now --- probably a sanctuary for owls or turtles or love bugs or something --- but it would better serve as a really great cemetery. And using existing architecture as an example, I'm sure the developer could erect some really neat faux tombstones with 19th century dates and maybe a connection to Ponce De Leon. Properly landscaped and with the input from present residents who die in the future, I'm sure it would make for a lovely location for an evening stroll.

And I don't see any reason for this interfering with the existing pool and courts. A real win-win-win situation.
