Philly unveils plan to restore historic Cobbs Creek Golf Course
The long-awaited revitalization of the historic Cobbs Creek Golf Club is on track to begin this spring. The $65 million plan will revamp its “Olde Course” into one capable of hosting PGA Tour events and create a community programming hub.
Located along Lansdowne Avenue in West Philadelphia and divided by Cobbs Creek, the club was designed in the early 20th century by acclaimed architect Hugh Wilson, who also helped create the famed Merion Golf Club in Delaware County that hosted the U.S. Open on its East Course in 2013.
