The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, 3708 Las Vegas Boulevard South in Las Vegas, and The Algonquin Hotel Times Square, 59 West 44th St. in New York City, are a part of Marriott’s Autograph Collection Hotel brand.
Associated Bank has coordinated a $36 million loan for ECD Company affiliate, SMASHotels Chicago, LLC, for the construction of the new Marriott Autograph Collection Hotel in the Streeterville neighborhood of Chicago.

Located at 228 E. Ontario Street, the 21-story, 195-room hotel will feature a restaurant and lounge in the first floor, meeting and event space, a fitness room, and business center. Associated had previously provided the land acquisition loan for the property.
