Butters Construction & Development has opened public hard hat tours for the upcoming Boca Paddle by CityPickle facility. The 100,000-square-foot club is scheduled to fully open for play on November 18, 2026.
Why it matters
The development serves as a public-private partnership with the Greater Boca Raton Beach & Park District to create a major community wellness and sports hub. It aims to address local demand for recreational space by offering a mix of indoor and outdoor court environments.
The 8.1-acre facility features 25 total courts, including 19 dedicated to pickleball and 6 for padel. The project is restricted to an inaugural membership base of 1,000 participants.
