Join CAF for an exclusive Behind-The-Scenes tour of the Blackstone Hotel. The Blackstone opened in 1910 (architects Benjamin Marshall and Charles Fox), closed in 1999 and has undergone a $128M renovation led by Lucien Lagrange Architects, Wiss Janney, Elstner Associates of Chicago (forensic architecture) and Gettys (interior design). It formally opens on April 30th and we have the great opportunity to hear about process of adaptive reuse from Project Manager, Cayl Hollis (Lucien Lagrange Architects).
