Yeah, hopefully some other project will kick off to accompany it...like in the "Potential Parking Garage/New Hotel" space. TG will hopefully act as an anchor drawing other complimentary business to it. There's apparently a shortage of convention space when Church of the Highlands bought the Cahaba Grand Conference center. So hopefully that will help push forward the need to get the BJCC project gowing.

Ground has officially been broken now. They plan to open in December, and will start hiring in the fall.

I was just in Uptown, and noticed that TopGolf is really going up fast. They will definitely meet the end of the year opening date.

What a great backdrop. So glad they chose Birmingham for its first urban location.

Same. Perhaps a west facing range would put guests directly in the setting sun.
