	Making cardinals comfortable - Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
		The 115 cardinals taking part in the intensely secretive session now have a place to hang their scarlet cassocks: Thanks in large part to a Pittsburgh benefactor, they will reside in a hotel-like residence with private suites and rooms, including bathrooms with modern showers.
		Astorino consulted on various aspects of the interior of the Domus Sanctae Marthae.
		One of his ideas incorporated into the building was for the bathrooms, which Astorino suggested should include separate American-style showers and tubs as opposed to the narrow, steep-walled bathtubs with attached shower heads common in European designs.

		But John Paul, a veteran of two conclaves, decided to let the cardinals out, declaring that all of Vatican City was "con chiave." Cardinals this time around will be housed in the $20 million hotel-residence Domus Sanctae Marthae and be allowed to use Vatican City chapels for Masses.
		The reasons for the change are practical: There was no running water in the makeshift rooms the cardinals used in the Apostolic Palace, and there was only one bathroom for every five or six electors, he said.
		John Paul made clear, though, that the norms for secrecy must remain: "Provision shall be made to ensure that no one approaches the cardinal electors while they are being transported from the Domus Sanctae Marthae to the Apostolic Vatican Palace," the document says.

	AIArchitect, April 22, 2005 - Pittsburgh Architect Provides Personal Connection to the Cardinals’ Conclave at the ...
		Pope John Paul II—who attended the two conclaves of 1978 after the death of Pope Paul VI, and then of Pope John Paul I only 33 days after he was elected—determined that the extreme discomfort of the cardinals’ quarters during conclaves was unnecessary, especially given that conclaves can last weeks, months, or, rarely, years.
		The Pope wanted to ensure that the next conclave would prove more hospitable, so he authorized the building of the Domus Sanctae Marthae, a hotel on the grounds of the Vatican, and an adjacent chapel where the cardinals could reflect in private and pray for guidance.
		In 1993, Astorino was asked to consult on the Domus Sanctae Marthae.
