NEW affordable housing in Ybor! 🏘️ Today, we celebrated the completion of Casa Maceo, a project by three born and raised Tampa friends turned developers. We partnered with the Pittman Design Group, which was awarded funding from a state affordable housing program, enabling them to transform a vacant plot into a 10-unit affordable housing complex. These 2 and 3 bedroom apartments will serve those making up to 80% of the area median income (AMI) – for a family of four, that is roughly a household making $83,000. Partnerships like this are #TransformingTampa and part of our multi-pronged strategy to increase housing options for people at all income levels.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show is not exclusively gay, but it is deeply rooted in queer culture due to its exploration of sexual liberation, gender fluidity, and its features of numerous openly gay, bisexual, and gender nonconforming characters. The film’s themes, characters, and its dedicated fanbase have cemented its status as a landmark for the LGBTQ+ community. The 2025 Documentary is a wild journey into the origins of The Rocky Horror Picture show, the biggest cult film of all time, its impact on popular culture and socio-political resonance to this day.
