Does anyone have a need fore a putting green?

The owners of Whim Golf on Avenue A are hoping to find a new home — a community garden, school or outdoor residential space — for its custom putting green. 

The green has been the centerpiece of the space at 66 Avenue A between Fourth Street and Fifth Street for the past few months. Co-founder Will Gisel explained that they only have the storefront for the summer and are hoping to find someplace to donate the kid-friendly amenity. 

If you're interested, then contact Gisel via email.

Founded in 2019, Whim Golf "is an American fashion brand on a mission to democratize golf."

    Hope it gets donated to some place where kids can use it and get turned on to the sport. It looks pretty big, bigger than my living room! HA

    Nice that they're looking to do something good with it, but still not sure i feel good about them being here. Golf will always be the rich man's game

    Not quite "Headless Body in Topless Bar," but solid headline.

    they are closing? I've been enjoying yelling "golf kills" every time I walk by (which is only about every week or two, but still... time for a new hobby)

    I am a golfer, not rich though. I play at Dyker Beach and Silver Lake, both are cheap NYC muni courses. Many, but not all, people who play this game are rich dicks. Have a heart.
