The Hyatt Regency Milwaukee is located at 333 West Kilbourn Avenue in Downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin, in the United States. The 21-story hotel was built in 1979 and is owned by Cambridge Landmark, a Miami-based private equity firm.
Background
The hotel was built in 1979 and is Шаблон:Cvt with Шаблон:Cvt of meeting space.[1] The Hyatt Regency is a 21-story 484-room hotel located in Downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin. It was built by the Hunzinger Construction Company and designed by Py-Vavra Architects-Engineers. One of the hotel's most unique features is the revolving rooftop restaurant. It is made using poured concrete.[2] The restaurant was called the Polaris and opened in 1980. On April 12, 2009, it closed and the space was used for meetings.[3] In 2015 the area was reopened after a renovation and the owners announced that the space would no longer rotate.[4]
History
In 2007 the owners of the hotel were the Noble Investment Group, an Atlanta-based company.[1][3] Noble purchased the property from Gary Grunau and his partners for US$43.9 million. In 2009, Noble spent approximately $19 million to renovate.[5] In 2018 a Miami-based private equity firm (Cambridge Landmark) paid $37.3 million to purchase the hotel.[1][6] In 2019 the new owners began renovating the hotel.[5]
The first three days of the 2004 Green National Convention were held at the Milwaukee Hyatt Regency, while the final day was held at the Baird Center convention venue.[7] In 2023 the Milwaukee Skywalk was added to connect the Hyatt to the Baird Center.[8]
Assassination attempt
The hotel was built on the site of the former Gilpatrick Hotel.[9] On October 14, 1912, the Gilpatrick was the site of an assassination attempt on the former President of the United States Theodore Roosevelt.[10][11] A plaque commemorating the assassination attempt was added to the front of the Gilpatrick Hotel by the United Spanish War Veterans of Milwaukee County in 1926. After the Gilpatrick was razed the plaque was saved and stored. In 1979 the plaque was affixed to the newly constructed Hyatt Regency.[9]
On October 14, 2012, to mark the 100th anniversary of the assassination attempt, the city reenacted the event. It took place at the east entrance of the Hyatt Regency where the Gilpatrick once stood. The participants wore period costumes including several police re-enactors.[12]
