North Hills is getting a bowling complex.
Triangle entrepreneurs Chris Angel and Alan Fluke announced today that they will open Sparians Midtown Bowling Boutique in a space on the first floor of the Park & Market apartment building.
The complex will take up about 30,000 square feet -- the second largest retail space in North Hills -- and will include a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating and a bar.
“Although bowling will be the primary attraction, our main focus will be on creating a vibrant atmosphere with appetizing food, unlimited fun and impeccable service," said Fluke, managing partner and COO.
Sparians will feature 18 bowling lanes and two private suites with six lanes to accommodate group functions. Sparians will also allow Nintendo Wii and Xbox games to be played on large TV’s and projection screens.
Construction has yet to begin on the space, which will be across from Bruegger’s Bagel Bakery and the Captrust Tower.
Flukeis a veteran of Disney, ESPN Zone, Legoland, The Tropicana Casino & Resort, and Adventure Landing.
Chris Angel has worked for SAS, IBM and Seagate.
The North Hills East development includes nearly 1 million square feet of new retail space and 700 residential units.
