I'd put a disco ball up in the top, but hey, I sort of grew up in the 1970s.

If someone were looking for a Math formula to estimate how many Illegal Aliens (from Guatemala) could be humanely housed inside the Cleveland Harbor Lighthouse, wonder what that would be? As a hypothetical exercise. Not that such a plan would be any under serious consideration, mind you!
There are likely many interior cubic feet now available for the filling.

The perfect bunker should those aliens turn out to be
Triffids.
I want to be “The Lighthouse Keeper”.

I wouldn't mind owning this one in Nauset on Cape Cod in Massachusetts. Went there on my honeymoon. A very picturesque spot.

The way the management of our country is going we had better be prepared with some redundancy in navigation, basic communications and energy. As one example these fools eliminated nuclear plants and public telephones that provide redundancy and communications when cell technology in urban areas can becomes insufficient due to excess demand as it did during 9-11.

Airbnb gold mine is right.
Better have really good broadband though.
I’d get one of these, if it were nowhere near all that global warming business, that sounds really scary. /rimshot
