Urban Tanning Spa Again
Urban Tanning Spa has surfaced again. After their ungraceful exit from their Pacific Ave location, they seem to be ready to try again. In the midst of a press release about a new shopping center in South Hill you’ll notice:
The new tenants include: AT&T Wireless; Games Workshop; Hand & Stone Massage Spa; Sleep Country USA; Soleil Nail Spa; Urban Tanning Spa; The Ram Restaurant & Brewery; Pizzeria Fondi; Qdoba Mexican Grill; and Big Foot Java, which will open what if calls a “flagship cafe” featuring an indoor-outdoor fireplace.
Hmmm…. maybe Sassy will be driving to 156th and Meridian for tanning?

The sad part is I bet they do quite well out there in that suburban sprawl mad-house.

Very exciting news, to be sure. No doubt they will make a killing out there in Puyallup. Not sure if the name works, however.

My blanched, sickly, sun starved skin terrifies small children & grownups alike now that UTS is gone. I seek a new place to tan my lily white arse so people will stop asking me if i’ve been sick…but I think that will be a bit too far to go. Plus I’m still pissed about paying for a month I didn’t get to use last time.
I know it’s not fashionable to like sprawl or whatever on this blog, but I always have fun visiting my spray tanned, Sunrise dwelling, fake Louis Vuitton toting stepford wife friends in the burbs. And coming home to Tacoma. To each his own.

Mmmmmmm Pizzeria Fondi! They have awesome real italian style thin crust pizza. Now I won’t have to drive to Gig Harbor or Kent to get some.

I would rather drive to Gig Harbor than Puyallup any day. I also think they will do quite well in Puyallup. They like the year-round fake tan out there.

Question remains though… just the same name or is it also the same ownership?

New ownership. The previous owner left town and went off the deep end.
