Thank you all for your advice, I've gotten some things to think about.
To answer some of the questions:
Imaging or Visual?
Two months ago I would say imaging, but recently I've been thinking about doing all imaging through something like itelescope.net (have yet to try it out, of course). However, the 'upstairs' is an attic space so there will not be anyone but me moving around up there, especially at night. I think vibrations may actually not be a problem.
I've looked at a number of domes, not quite certain yet. Right now I'm just trying to decide if this is the right thing to do, or if I am better off doing something different. I think I still have some thinking to do. Heat and vibrations seems to be may main adversaries in this venture.
Again thank you for your thoughts, I have never built an observatory yet so I have lots of research to do to come to the a workable decision.
