SAN ANTONIO — A new multimillion-dollar entertainment complex on the Northwest Side is expected to be a boon to local entertainment as well as attract tourists.

TopGolf finalized its plans last week for a San Antonio location, which will be the golf entertainment company's first in San Antonio, the seventh Texas location and 15th overall.

Officials expect to get a good share of tourists from out of the United States, specifically from Mexico.

The 65,000-square-foot, three-level golf and entertainment venue, expected to open in late fall, will be across Interstate 10 from Six Flags Fiesta Texas and The Shops at La Cantera, according to a news release issued by the company. TopGolf San Antonio will feature a full bar and kitchen as well as more than 230 high-definition televisions.

The estimated $15 million complex will be modeled after a Houston location and will hire about 450 personnel (about 100 full-time positions), according to the San Antonio Business Journal. The facility is expected to serve 400,000 visitors in its first year and to generate $264.5 million in economic output over 10 years.
