Austin Pickle Ranch announces closure of downtown location
AUSTIN (KXAN) -- A popular pickleball court in downtown Austin announced its sudden closure on social media Friday.
Austin Pickle Ranch, located at 1717 West Sixth St., announced the downtown location was closing, effective immediately.
Effective immediately, the Austin Pickle Ranch West 6th location will be permanently closing. Despite our extensive efforts and negotiations, we were unable to secure the necessary city zoning permissions to continue operations. We have worked tirelessly, exploring numerous discussions and potential solutions with city officials to prevent this outcome.
We hope this is not a final farewell and that we can return to West 6th in some capacity in the future. In the meantime, we invite our members and the Austin pickleball community to visit our Braker Lane location, which is now open.

Austin Pickle Ranch thanked everyone on social media for being a part of its community and said, "We’re hanging up our spurs (and paddles) and making Braker Lane our main court."
