Tampa, Florida: Futuro UFO House Atop a Strip Club

"The most unique VIP room in the South." Free to look at the building, but pricey to actually enter (we are told), and not for families! The portable, prefabricated home design from 1968 is by Finnish architect Matti Suuronen.

Futuro UFO House Atop a Strip Club

I spotted an interesting variation of a Futuro UFO House while on a business trip to Tampa, Florida. This Futuro House is located on Dale Marby Blvd two blocks South of the Raymond James Stadium on the East side of the road. The UFO is painted silver, much like the one in North Carolina, but instead of being free-standing this UFO is perched atop a business, which happens to be a strip club. A small sign out states that the UFO is "the most unique VIP room in the South." I'll take their word for it.

The club was named 2001 Odyssey Nude last time we checked. Photo added March 2009.
