A group in LA purchases Mr. T’s, a former bowling alley turned punk-rock dive that’s in complete disarray. They decide to restore it to its original Prohibition-era state. They go all in, from the original pinball machines to the original pennants lining the walls, to creating chandeliers out of antique pin setter machines. Since they’re going to hell anyway, why not?
The result: the coolest bowling alley in the country.
It re-opens tomorrow night, with its original name: Highland Park Bowl. The menu includes Neopolitan pizzas and classic cocktails. Next year, they’re adding a microbrewery. But just check out the renovation. It’s mind-blowing. Who wants to leave the Matrix?
