I remember seeing one used as a temporary bank branch. I think it was in Pennsylvania. Brought it in by helicopter.
I’ve spent a few good nights in that saucer! Great story.
Hey thanks for that; I always wondered. There is another example of a similar house at the Henry Ford Museum in Detroit which is a totally cool place to visit when you can pull yourselves away from the clubs. It's called the Dymaxion House; I think a bit larger than the Futuro:
Very cool story, shadow. Thanks for sharing it!
Sounds like a real fun club. Lots of funky and semi-concealed spaces. Use zoom outs and maps to see where this is:
816 reviews, and in a state with lots and lots of clubs tuscl.net

sc- Thanks for the link and interesting story. There weren't that many Futuro houses built. Several years ago, another Tuscl member told me about the Futuro house. Several months back shortly after Tampa dodged a major hurricane bullet (clobbered Key West, Tampa was projected as possible bulls eye hit for Cat 3 hurricane, but ended up dying down to tropical storm strength) I asked club manager how much wind the spaceship could take without being toppled/blown away. He stated he didn't really know, guessed maybe a Cat1 hurricane tops.
