Btw, just want to know if anybody know about this? It is bizzare. Someone build a town based on Christianity.

Ave Maria News

I am living in Naples right now and Ave Maria has been somewhat controversial because of its affiliation with the catholic church.  The town was created by the founder of Domino's Pizza who is a devout catholic and wanted to make a new home for Ave Maria University.  There are a few oddball rules for the town as a result of this, such as pharmacies will not be allowed to sell contraceptives. Other than that its just like any other New Urban community.   From an urban design standpoint it reminds me a lot of Celebration.

There was actually a feature articel on Ave Maria in last month's GQ Magazine, the one with Jessica Biel on the cover  :wub:
Very interesting concept, to say the least.

I have planned to move to the Florida this tear.Probably looking for some good Job and soon have a plan to shift there.I really like this area. Maximum number of Hotels, plenty of food restaurants  and most of all many opportunities for the beginners.Ave Maria is Naples, Florida's newest master-planned residential and commercial real estate development.Ave maria is really a good place as far as my personal view is consult.
