As part of the November 2014 acquisition of neighboring Essex Inn, Quadrum, together with its local development partner obtained approximately 400,000sf of development rights over what was at the time a 4-storey parking structure for the hotel. The Joint Venture redeveloped this parking structure into Essex On The Park, a 479-unit, 56-storey luxury multifamily tower overlooking Grant Park and Lake Michigan. Due to its location within the burgeoning South Loop, its unobstructed views, and the unmet demand of high-end residential rentals available in the immediate submarket, Essex On The Park leased-up to near stabilization within its first 18-months. Quadrum sold Essex On The Park in October 2020 and continues to own Hotel Essex next door now rebranded Le Méridien Essex Chicago.
