CHARLOTTE-- Charlotte city council unanimously approved plans for the city's second Topgolf facility last week.

The first location opened last summer in Southwest Charlotte. The popular sporting venue is the first phase of a new entertainment district in university city located near IKEA and the LYNX Blue Line extension.

“What it really is an opportunity I think for us to have a venue that's going to be a destination we feel for the whole University area and Northeast Charlotte and even the whole city,” said Greg Phipps, (D) Charlotte City Council.

Phipps said future phases of the entertainment district could include restaurants, breweries and a movie theater.
