Our History
A MASTERWORK OF RESTORATION
Established in 1927, Highland Park Bowl originated during the midst of prohibition, and the building housed numerous doctors offices on the second floor, a pharmacy, music store, and recreation space.
At this time, patrons obtained legal doctors notes for medicinal whiskey upstairs, then headed downstairs to fill the prescription at the pharmacy, which allowed permissible boozing and bowling. In 1933, the music store acquired a live music permit and fulfilled yet another spirited layer of culture into the destination.
In 1966, Joseph Mr. T Teresa, an Italian immigrant, purchased the building and renamed it Mr. Ts Bowl. With a complete overhaul, he concealed the original design with dropped ceilings, wall coverings and layers of paint. Throughout the decades, the bowling component diminished and it evolved into a beloved music venue hosting local artists of various genres.
After peeling away years of layers, 1933 Group exposed the original faade and interior, refurbished the lanes, and discovered a treasure trove of items, which were refurbished, repurposed, and put on display.
