Maine, USA

We finally have a photo of this Futuro in its new home in Maine; many thanks to alldayphila who sent us the photo. While we also do have some more precise location information given that the new owner of this Futuro clearly wishes to remain private (there is no information anywhere that we have come across about the new location) we are not adding that precise location information here. We also recently came across some nice video footage shot shortly before the Futuro left Wisconsin. The videos

Previous owner Drew recently sent us these photos from back on 080617 when his Futuro was disassembled and began its move to Maine. What is that old saying? «Better late than never». That sentiment definitely applies here; great photos — thanks for sending them over Drew.

In his email Drew also added the interesting fact that the interior fixtures and fittings were discarded and did not travel with the shell.

We have never heard exactly where the Futuro ended up, just «somewhere in Maine». The

We had not come across any updates regarding this Futuro post its sale at the end of 2016 until recently when we received an email from David Dalena. David, who is from from Boothbay Harbor, Maine wrote in part:

«Yesterday I was standing near the road (Lakeside Drive) chatting with my neighbor, when a huge truck carrying a rounded wedge of fiberglass with oval windows went by. She said, huh — weird boat (we see a lot of boats go by every day). But this was different, and I recognized that it mi

Owner, or more accurately ex-owner, Drew let us know recently that his Futuro had been sold. The new owner plans to move the Futuro to a new location in Maine in the spring.

Right around the same time as we heard from Drew Nicholas Lodge sent us these great photos showing the Futuro ready for winter and wearing a «snow cap». The photos were taken 112616. Thanks for sharing them Nicholas.

Rob O’Hara recently took the opportunity to experience life in a Futuro when he and his family took a vacation in Wisconsin and stayed in the «Pod Up North». Rob took a great set of photos and some of these can be found below (our thanks to Rob for allowing us to display them here); the full set can be found in Rob’s Gallery.

There are many interior variations to be found in Futuros both in the US and elsewhere but Rob informs us that the «Pod Up North» seems to be little changed from the «stan

The «Pod Up North» just got herself a little facelift. Drew was kind enough to send us the photos below which provide a «before and after» look at the Futuro either side of a good cleaning the unit just received. As Drew put it «What a difference a little cleaning can make …» Thanks for sending the photos Drew.

Though we were reasonably certain we had the location of this Futuro «down» the imagery previously available in Google Maps was not good and we could not be 100% sure. Thanks to updated Google Maps satellite imagery dated 050913 we are now sure; this latest satellite imagery shows the Futuro clearly.

If you are anything like us and have an interest in (or maybe even an obsession with) the Futuro House owning one would be just amazing but frankly beyond the means of most of us. What might be the next best thing? How about renting one for a vacation?

Drew Poggeman can offer you just that opportunity with the PodUpNorth. Located with private access to Lake Sumach, Wisconsin the PodUpNorth provides an opportunity to take a vacation in your own private «UFO» and experience the picturesque landsc
