2200 acres goes so far beyond bizarre that "obscene" probably doesn't begin to cover it.
A number of years ago I was involved in helping a friend plan the subdivision of her family's small farm. It was only 72 acres. It's pretty amazing just how large 72 acres is. 500 acres would be
PLENTY of land on which to build a memorial and info center to commemorate what is, basically, a hole in the ground where an aircraft augered in.
An acre is 43,560 square feet. If it's perfectly square, it's approximately 208 feet on each side.
2200 acres 95,832,000 square feet, which if perfectly square comes out to 9,789 feet per side. That's almost 2 MILES square.
Ridiculous. Insulting. Obscene.
