We are now, in my North California area--undergoing 105+ days of temps. It is miserable. I am thinking how tourists in a authentic Roman city would feel in small stifling bed rooms, with no windows, or at best just small slit windows and no modern air con or fans, other than slaves waving large plumed fans. Sleeping in this would be a real turn off, as well as just functioning during the days. You might want to explore siting this "city" in some area that lacks major temp extremes. Maybe even in some parts of Mexico, where the temp might be fairly level year round. I think people's comfort levels would have a lot to do about growth, and return business.<br>
