Topgolf Confirms Third Greater Houston Location in Webster
Houston, TX (PRWEB) December 09, 2014 -- Topgolf has teed up point-scoring golf fun for nearly 2 million guests since the concept arrived in Houston two years ago. The company opened its second Houston-area location in Spring earlier this year, and now its third location is about to break ground. Topgolf Webster will be located at 21401 Gulf Freeway and will open to the public in fall 2015.
Ranked among the top 15 most popular recreational activities in the area, Topgolf is the only entertainment center of its kind. It offers competitive golfing games for all ages and skill levels and advanced technology to track every player’s shots. Those who just want to relax can enjoy the upscale, laid-back ambiance that boasts more than 230 high-definition flat-screen TVs and an extensive food and beverage menu.
“Webster is an ideal destination for a third Topgolf location in the Houston area,” said Topgolf Real Estate Director Zach Shor. “Webster is a fantastic, fast-growing community with remarkable demographics. Its location allows us to make our mark in the southeastern Houston region and draw in visitors from Clear Lake and Galveston. The Topgolf team can’t wait to get construction underway this month.”
Topgolf Webster will be the company’s eighth Texas location, modeled closely after its existing facilities in Spring and near Katy. The new three-level facility will include approximately 3,000 square feet of private event space and 102 climate-controlled hitting bays that can host up to six players at one time. Shor estimates that Topgolf Webster will serve approximately 450,000 visitors in its first year of operation. Nearly half of all Topgolf guests describe themselves as “non-golfers.”
Founded in 2000, Topgolf’s popularity has been soaring in the U.S. More than 4 million people played in 2014. Its economic impact in the community is also remarkable, creating hundreds of jobs at each location and serving as an anchor tenant that tends to attract other popular franchises to the area. In fact, with its third Houston location, Topgolf’s economic output in the area is expected to exceed $793 million over a 10-year-period, according to a third-party audit.
