Situated at the corner of Clark and Addison Streets, adjacent to the historic Wrigley Field, Hotel Zachary will be “a community gathering place that taps into the distinctive character of Wrigleyville”.
The property is scheduled to open in early 2018. Its name pays homage to Chicago architect, Zachary Taylor Davis, who designed Wrigley Field in 1914.
Hickory Street Capital is a real estate development company owned by the Ricketts family. Chairman Tom Ricketts said: “We are proud to bring Hotel Zachary to the Wrigleyville neighbourhood as part of our commitment to enhance the Lakeview community. With this new hotel, we look forward to paying respect to the rich and storied history of Chicago architecture, while creating a unique hotel experience for guests.”
The seven-storey Hotel Zachary will feature 175 guest rooms. It will be part of a mixed-use development that will include numerous retail and F&B outlets.
