Sunny With A Chance of Naked

by Matt DiChiara, MyNewPlace

We noticed that a certain rental property, ‘Arbors at Branch Creek‘ had aroused some marked interest in the past few days; organic traffic to those apartments for rent has skyrocketed in the past few days. We wondered what was at the heart of all this commotion.

Apparently, ‘Arbors at Branch Creek’ is now called ‘Eden’ and has a whole new swing in its step. The upscale apartment complex in Tampa, has just stripped down their image with a brand spanking new policy.

The Eden apartments encourage their residents to “shed more than their inhibitions as they enter the gates of Eden.” By offering a European-style clothing optional swimming pool, Eden hopes to become a luxury condominium community that puts no restrictions on the lifestyles of its residents.

Eden has a newly revamped website that certainly made us consider relocating to Tampa. The website is very visually convincing. Actually, we hear Tampa is supposed to be a pretty nice place. Nice climate, good people. There are probably some good job opportunities there. Perhaps, it would be a good time for us to embark on a southeasterly relocation.

No, no! We must ignore the intriguing possibilities of living in Eden. We cannot be moving about the country to explore hedonistic living situations, regardless of the attractiveness of the models in the website’s photo gallery.

Though it does seem reasonable; is the diversity of custom not the strength of our cultural fabric? Should we turn our clothed shoulders to that which is unconventional? Are we that close-minded? Certainly not! Being a bit more European would help us enjoy the finer things in life, stop and smell the roses, so to speak. Oui, Oui, il sera tres bon!

Oh that sneaky website has us speaking in romance languages now. That photo gallery has stealthily and stubbornly entrenched itself in our minds and is beginning to become a little too creatively persuasive. 

“But what of the pristine natural landscape that surrounds Eden? It would be so relaxing and calming.”

“We know what you are up to, brain, and you are going to have to wake up pretty early in the morning to convince us to move into some kind of natural, nude paradise.” We are not falling for that, again.” 

Help us decide what to do. Would you move into this kind of apartment complex?

But seriously, check out Eden’s website.
