Walsh Construction completed the historic rehabilitation of the century-year-old Cook County Hospital building, converting the building into a dual branded Hyatt Place and Hyatt House hotel, accompanied by the new Dr. Murphy’s Food Hall. The transformative project is the first phase and anchor for Harrison Square, a new micro-neighborhood that will add residential, office, retail and hotel space in the area immediately surrounding the former hospital within the Illinois Medical District. The development converted the 345,000-square-foot former hospital and medical college into a 210-room dual branded Hyatt House and Hyatt Place hotel. The building also includes a museum that chronicles the hospital’s noteworthy contributions to the region and to the medical field.
