When asked about the redevelopment of the historic building that first housed a Ford dealer in 1926, Joseph Correll, director of food and beverage for Mayfair Street Partners, responded “This is an amenity that the city of Winston-Salem has been begging for.”
What he is referring to is the company’s plans to develop the large site into a one-stop destination in the middle of town. They plan a speakeasy in the basement, a microbrewery at street-level with self-serve taps, six stalls for food sales that will range from pizza to Chinese and Mexican cuisine. On the next level is the real draw to the building. There, they will build a more upscale restaurant, an arcade center, and a sports area with 12 duckpin lanes and golf simulators.
More specific details are unknown at this point as the project is still in the early planning stages. The project’s total cost is estimated to be around $10 million and should create as many as 100 jobs.
While the Winston-Salem area has a long history of duckpin bowling, going back to the turn-of-the-century, local news media is calling it “new to the Triad area”.
