Club La Vela in Panama City Beach, Florida, in December 2009. The beachfront entertainment complex was promoted as the largest nightclub in the United States and was closely associated with Panama City Beach’s spring break tourism economy during the 1990s and 2000s. Visible on the building are the club’s main entrance, an MTV Tower sign, and a Beach-Clubwear retail space, with a club-branded promotional vehicle parked in front.
