Location: 2.6 miles from O’Hare Airport

In 2014, O’Hare was the busiest airport in the world in terms of annual aircraft operations. In 2010, it ranked 3rd busiest in terms of annual passengers and 18th busiest for air cargo. Since the airport was first completed, development has flourished around it: first with the Centex Industrial Park (2,200 acres) to the west in the early-1960s, followed by office development to the east of the airport beginning in the late-1960s.

Easy access to City and Suburbs

Many corporate users choose the O’Hare submarket due to the central location and ease of access to both downtown Chicago and the surrounding communities for employees. Two of Chicagoland’s highest volume roadways—the Jane Adams/Kennedy Expressway (I-90) and the Tri-State Tollway (I-294)—intersect just west of the property, making the City and suburbs comfortably convenient.

Near Rosemont and more

Neighboring Rosemont is a thriving destination for tourism, entertainment, and convention business. Home to the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, the Allstate Arena, and the Rosemont Theatre, as well as ample dining, hotel, retail and entertainment options, Rosemont is a great place to eat, shop, play, stay and do business. Nearby Edison Park and Park Ridge provide even more options for shopping and dining.

Potential synergies with adjacent hotel

Common ownership with the adjacent Spring Hill Suites at 8101 West Higgins could create a unique opportunity for businesses seeking to satisfy both accommodations and meeting / event space needs.
