to your constituency, but I have to wonder about the advisability of this location. Back to a river and front to a 7-11, regular houses all around? Seems there'd be as much danger to them as to the capital residence. I've just not heard of this sort of thing before. AFAIK, they were generally away from the general populace... in the amount of land with fencing surrounding it, if nothing else. But then, I come from an area with land probably more easily available than Penn.
