From St. Louis Post-Dispatch: Puttshack, which offers an “upscale” game of miniature golf, will open at City Foundry STL in the summer.
The Chicago-based concept will occupy a two-story, 26,500-square-foot space at the midtown venue, where it will feature four courses with automated scoring and interactive games at each hole.
“We’re excited to add Puttshack as another first-to-the-area, curated experience at City Foundry STL,” Will Smith, managing director of City Foundry STL, said in a statement. “You’ll likely have fond memories of playing mini golf as a kid, but Puttshack is bringing that back to the people of St. Louis in a new and refreshed way.”
Puttshack replaces Punch Bowl Social, a combination restaurant, bowling alley and arcade concept that was impacted by the coronavirus pandemic and a bankruptcy filing. Puttshack first opened in Atlanta in 2018.
City Foundry STL is a more than $300 million redevelopment of the former Federal-Mogul site that also features a food hall. Alamo Drafthouse movie theater, Fresh Thyme grocery and other retail is also slated to open. City Foundry’s office component opened in 2020. Its next phase is slated to include apartments and more office space.
City Foundry, just east of Ikea, is at 3730 Foundry Way, off Forest Park Parkway. St. Louis commercial real estate firm Pace Properties represented Puttshack in its lease with City Foundry.
