Newly Renovated Dyker Beach Golf Course Forms Unforgettable Backdrop for New York Events
March 19, 2009
An $11 million renovation makes a historic building on one of the city’s first golf courses a premier venue for weddings, corporate gatherings and other events.
NEW YORK, March 19 /PRNewswire/ — The arrival of spring offers a new option for New Yorkers preparing memorable weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, business meetings, and other family, community or corporate functions. The newly renovated historic clubhouse at the Dyker Beach Golf Course, one of New York’s unsung gems, showcases the benefits of its $11 million renovation. Under the management of New York City Events, the sales arm of American Golf Corporation, the course offers unique advantages for all events and occasions.
Dyker Beach, one of the most popular golf courses in the US, “once again takes its place among the great event venues of New York City,” says
Jeff DeFranco, General Manager of Dyker Beach. “Dyker Beach sits at the mouth of one of the world’s great harbors, in the shadow of the soaring Verrazano-Narrows Bridge, and the newly renovated clubhouse offers people a great resource for events, as well as a place to relax after a terrific day of golf in the city.”
Dyker Beach welcomed its first golfers in the 1890s, when the Brooklyn seaside was a weekend destination for people leaving the hustle of the metropolis. The renovated clubhouse features top-notch modern amenities as well. “We’ve combined the best of old and new at Dyker Beach, much like New York City itself,” DeFranco says.
The new banquet hall can accommodate 300 guests with a dance floor and features gourmet catering for events of every size, customized golf packages and world-class service provided by the New York City Events staff. Private rooms are also available for more intimate gatherings.
“Dyker Beach offers city golfing at its finest,” says
Matt Silver, Regional Director of Catering for American Golf. “What do they say are the three most important things about New York City real estate? Location, location, location,” he says. “Dyker Beach is on the corner of 86th Street and Seventh Avenue, in the heart of Brooklyn. How many golf courses are within walking distance from the R train?”
New Yorkers and out-of-towners alike can reach their events or make their tee times with ease. Dyker Beach Golf Course sits in the heart of Brooklyn, but its elegantly refurbished clubhouse and expansive greens are a world unto themselves.
“At Dyker Beach, you have a distinctive combination of comfort, history, service and convenience that makes it a memorable location for your next event or round of golf,” says Silver.
