An iconic Jacksonville Beach landmark for 60 years is on the road to reopening after it abruptly closed a little more than a year ago to the dismay of Northeast Florida bowlers.
The historic Beach Bowl at 818 Beach Blvd. is getting a $7.5 million overhaul including renovations, remodeling and upgrades.
The Jacksonville Beach Board of Adjustment on Feb. 2 approved the restoration project proposed by Jacksonville-based H&H Enterprises Inc., which owns the bowling alley.
As part of the project, Beach Bowl will expand its footprint, adding a two-story restaurant with rooftop dining, according to a site plan included in the company s application to the city.

JACKSONVILLE BEACH, Fla. – After the bowling alley closed its doors in Nov. 2019, Beach Bowl has been given the green light for a $7.5 million face-lift.
The renovation was approved during a Tuesday night meeting of the Jacksonville Beach Board of Adjustment.
According to Jacksonville Beach City Councilman Dan Janson, who made an announcement on his Facebook page, the venue will once again offer bowling. But there will also be some “entertainment additions,” as well as alfresco rooftop seating.
Further details, including a timeframe for the project, were not immediately clear. A newly engineered parking lot is part of the plan.
