ATLANTA, Ga. (November 19, 2019) – Puttshack, the upscale, tech-infused mini golf experience, signs its first U.S. lease to join The Interlock, a $450 million mixed-use development in the emerging West Midtown neighborhood.
Joining the dynamic retail mix within Atlanta’s newest development, Puttshack will occupy more than 25,000 square feet and will feature four unique nine-hole competitive mini golf courses complemented by best-in-class food and beverage offerings and a private event space for hosting social and corporate events.
“As we expand into the U.S., Atlanta is a must-have market for Puttshack – and West Midtown is the perfect fit,” said Joe Vrankin, CEO of Puttshack. “Our social entertainment experience is unlike any other – we’ve been blown away by the response to the concept in London, and we have no doubt we will see the same in Atlanta.”
From the founders of Topgolf, Flight Club and Bounce, Puttshack is the latest leading concept in the emerging and growing market of competitive socializing. Puttshack combines its patented ground-breaking technology with a first-class, immersive social environment to elevate the game of mini golf into a cutting-edge, high-energy mini golf experience unlike anything currently on the market. Since opening its first location in 2018, Puttshack now has three London locations with ambitious global plans for expansion.
“We couldn’t be more thrilled to announce the addition of Puttshack to The Interlock,” said Justin Latone, senior vice president of leasing for S.J. Collins Enterprises. “The high level of activity in both their innovative mini golf experience and best-in-class food and beverage offering is exactly the type of concept we seek for this high-energy, urban and mixed-use setting. Not only is it what we search for from a merchandising standpoint but it’s also what consumers want.”
Scheduled for completion in 2020, The Interlock will offer a versatile mix of more than 200,000 square feet of creative office space, 100,000 square feet for retail and restaurant space, 350 apartment units, 70 single-family homes and a 161-key Marriott Tribute Portfolio boutique hotel.
Other occupants previously announced for The Interlock, in addition to Puttshack, include Slater Hospitality Concepts, which will design an ultimate rooftop experience, St. Germain French Bakery, Velvet Taco, Cathy’s: Gourmet Ice Cream Sandwiches and Georgia Technology Ventures, which will operate a 50,000-square-foot incubator space with a mission of promoting and growing tech startups in the southeast. Additionally, WeWork will debut its sixth Atlanta location at The Interlock, and will occupy three floors across 118,000 square feet to accommodate more than 1,800 desks for its members.
The development’s other amenity-rich elements include a rooftop with a modern private pool club and lounge with a retractable roof. An upscale 12,000-square-foot two-story restaurant and outdoor bar with covered patio will complete the space. Visitors will enjoy an infinity-edge pool that drops off into the city skyline with stunning views.
Puttshack is expected to open at The Interlock in late 2020. For more information about Puttshack and The Interlock location, including job opportunities, please visit http://www.puttshack.com.
