Booz Allen Hamilton is in, and Puttshack might be out at Reston Station.

Developer Comstock Companies announced last month that the federal contractor will move its corporate headquarters to Reston Row, occupying 310,000 square feet. That includes the entire office building at 1870 Reston Row Plaza, where over 29,000 square feet had been reserved for Puttshack for the past three years.

As flagged by community members on Reddit, the high-tech, indoor mini golf venue is no longer listed on Reston Station’s directory, and Puttshack’s website has dropped any mention of a future Reston location.

Unfortunately for residents looking forward to a new dining and entertainment option, Comstock confirms that Puttshack won’t be coming to Reston Station — at least for now.

“Following the execution of the new Booz Allen lease at Reston Station, the space previously under consideration for Puttshack will now be incorporated into Booz Allen’s expanded footprint,” a Comstock spokesperson told FFXnow. “As a result, Puttshack will not be moving forward at Reston Station.”

Puttshack didn’t respond to a request for comment by press time, but Comstock’s spokesperson added that the developer is still engaged in “continued discussions with them to find an alternate position in the project.”

A Reston location would be the first in the D.C. metropolitan area for Puttshack, which combines a nine-hole, “tech-infused” mini golf course with a restaurant. Headquartered in Chicago, the company’s closest location to Fairfax County is currently in Philadelphia.

In addition to potentially finding room elsewhere for Puttshack, Comstock indicated that it’s still looking for additional retail tenants to host at Reston Station.

“We continue to see strong interest in the district and are actively curating a mix of retail, dining, and entertainment concepts that complement the vision for Reston Station,” the Comstock spokesperson said.

The second phase of Comstock’s development outside the Wiehle Metro station, Reston Row consists of two office buildings — the 9-story 1870 Reston Row and 13-story 1800 Reston Row Plaza — as well as the recently opened JW Marriott Hotel and Residences and the 419-unit BLVD Haley apartment building, whose first homes are now ready for move-ins, per its website.

The bakery Tous les Jours and Vida Fitness are currently open in 1800 Reston Row Plaza. While Puttshack’s future is now up in the air, the development will still welcome the restaurants Noku Sushi and Ebbitt House at some point.
