- Build-out of a new a rustically refined Mediterranean restaurant and bar experience by celebrated Chicago chef Fabio Viviani
- The restaurant is located on the roof level of the Canopy by Hilton Chicago in Chicago’s 226 W. Jackson building, which was transformed by Leopardo in 2021 into a 16-story, dual-branded, 350-key hotel
- The restaurant is characterized by attention to architectural details including custom tile walls, wood paneling, banquettes, custom main bar, entries, and a lighting design creating a visually stunning and impressive dining environment
- Prior to the start of construction, Leopardo engaged in collaborative preconstruction meetings with the architects, engineers, and owner, which facilitated the alignment of the design and corresponding budget
- The project required a complete re-work of the existing MEP systems on the 16th floor to accommodate the locations of the new kitchen, bar, and restrooms
- Leopardo worked alongside subcontractors and building staff to coordinate the work to limit disruptions in the operations of the active hotel
