GolfCave White Plains, an indoor golf facility, has opened in Greenburgh in a space at 97 Knollwood Road with a White Plains mailing address. The space at one time was home to the Greenburgh Cinema 100 movie theater. Westfair’s Westchester County Business Journal reported in June that GolfCave would be coming to the location.
The Cinema 100 opened in 1971 and had 700 seats. Over the years, it had a number of operators and was carved up into smaller theaters. Greenburgh’s Planning Board approved a special permit for the golf simulator facility.
The 7,900-square-feet space is in the Knollwood Shopping Center. The center consists of approximately 11.13 acres and is situated on the northeasterly side of the intersection of Knollwood Road and Dobbs Ferry Road.
The GolfCave is the franchise brand’s first location in New York state. GolfCave was founded in 2012 in New Jersey and as of Feb. 8 had 12 locations in operation with a 13th on Staten Island due to open soon. GolfCave White Plains is owned and operated by brothers Nicholas, Joseph, Michael, and Anthony Altero.
“Golf has always been a big part of our lives,” the brothers said in a statement. “Playing together has brought us closer as brothers, and we hope GolfCave White Plains becomes a place where families and friends can connect, play together, and make memories year-round.”
GolfCave features Trackman golf simulators that can provide replicas of holes at about 400 worldwide golf courses. The facility offers a variety of membership programs but also caters to nonmembers. It offers around-the-clock access.
