Ping pong club rounds out leasing at Philadelphia center

Spin, an entertainment concept that had its genesis in “Naked Ping Pong” parties in New York’s Tribeca neighborhood, has taken the ground floor space to close out leasing at a new retail venue in Philadelphia.



The glass-fronted, 55,000-sq.-ft. center in Rittenhouse Square, owned by an affiliate of Midwood Investment & Development, is co-anchored by The Cheesecake Factory and Verizon. Also inhabiting the three-story building is &Pizza and WeWork, a collaborative work space.



Philadelphia is the sixth location for Spin, which first opened in New York in 2009. The concept mixes food and beverage with ping pong, and is known for live events such as art shows, ballet battles, and, naturally, ping pong tournaments.



Spin’s other locations are in Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Toronto.



Leasing was handled by MSC Retail, which bills itself as an aggregation of artists, dealmakers, restaurateurs, and retail minds “whole lot of other trendsetters.”
