Topgolf has broken ground on a new entertainment complex in Chesterfield, with construction set to begin soon on the Dallas-based company's first Missouri location.
The three-story, 65,000-square-foot venue at 16851 N. Outer 40 Road is slated to open toward the end of 2018, the company said Tuesday.
Topgolf's Chesterfield facility, announced last year, will have up to 3,000 square feet of private event space and 102 climate-controlled hitting bays.
Topgolf, which currently operates 33 golf-themed entertainment complexes, estimates that the St. Louis area venue will draw 450,000 visitors in its first year of operation.
It will employ 500 people, a company spokeswoman said in an email.
