Top Golf metro rumors

IMO... A better location for this would be near the proposed sports complex in Johnston off Merle Hay. You can easily draw from Ankeny to Altoona to Waukee and everything in between. Johnston is the wealthiest suburb so you have tons of golf demand.

As a western suburb resident. I hope the Waukee entertainment district dies a quick death. Just a complete and total waste of money and land

Agree but nothing cool ever comes to Johnston.

Come on we are getting that new Townhall district … havent you seen those awesome canopys they installed this week? Also, we have the best high school baseball field in the state. Now that I think about it Johnston is pretty lame but it is our lame.

You got a new bridge by the soccer fields/Sycamore access.
Makes the speed traps easier for the cops.
 
The metro. It's a complete pain in the butt to get to Johnston from anywhere other than Urbandale or maybe Ankeny.

I guess it depends on where you live and where you're going. Let take two places right next to the interstate.

In Johnston, the new Caseys off 100th.
In Waukee, the new Kum and Go on Grand Prairie Parkway.
