Company plans to renovate Latitude 360 building, hire 150 workers

A company reportedly plans to renovate the former Latitude 360 venue in Jacksonville and hire 150 full- and part-time workers.

The Jacksonville entertainment center will open at the end of the year after an almost $4 million renovation of the building was passed by the city, according to the Financial News and Daily Record.

Jobs available on Texas-based Main Event Entertainment's website include technicians, culinary manager and restaurant operations manager.

Renovation plans reportedly include a bowling alley, laser-tag arena, arcade games, billiards, a bar and dining areas.

Action News Jax spent months investigating failed local hot spot Latitude 360 after it suddenly shut its doors in January, leaving employees jobless and without pay.

State Attorney Angela Corey said her team is investigating upwards of 10 people involved in managing the company’s finances.
