Along with a new game room, bar, restaurant and party room, the 31,000-square-foot project also called for a 16-lane bowling alley, bringing bowling back to Las Cruces for the first time since 2018, when 10 Pin Alley closed. I’ve never been an avid bowler, but for some reason it bothers me that Las Cruces doesn’t have a bowling alley.
