Bon Appetit, Friedman

We're pleased to welcome an all-star panel of CEOs, directors, and decision-makers) to our Chicago Real Estate Summit, an exclusive look at the commercial real estate market. Tuesday, Sept. 21. Mid-America Club. See preview below, then get on the list!

 
With just six days until our Chicago Real Estate Summit, we sat down with panelist Albert Friedman. His company owns buildings with some of the most popular restaurants, from Frontera Grill to The Bull and the Bear  and the recently opened Sunda. (It's just a fraction of the 52 buildings it owns, manages, and leases, mostly within a  12-block radius in River North.)
 
Here's Albert, who tells us many of Friedman's properties are adaptive re-uses from what was once a much seedier neighborhood. Restaurants led the way for Friedman to get involved in other businesses like hotels and the new Greenway Parking Garage. The company announced last month it will control the retail space for the new AMLI River North apartment building, which will start construction at the corner of Clark and Hubbard, making the neighborhood a 24-hour destination. Next Tuesday, gain insight from Albert and the many top names we've assembled: Duncan, Quicksilver, Zeller, Ryan, Pelusi, Lippman, Leone, and Klenovich.Sign up now!
