The property at 417 E. Chicago St. was acquired by Hovde Properties in 2022. It was previously owned by an affiliate of The Dohmen Company, which redeveloped the 42,141-square-foot building in 2014. The company’s life sciences division occupied the building from 2014 to 2018 before being sold and rebranded Eversana.

The Kubala Washatko Architects served as the project architect during the renovation.

Dohmen acquired the building from the Kathleen D’Acquisto Irrevocable Trust.

In July 1994, as the parking garage at 212 N. Milwaukee St. was under construction across the street, the building was sold by Johnson Controls to the Kathleen D’Acquisto Irrevocable Trust. Johnson Controls had used the building for printing and office space.

The building has been home to a number of different tenants since it was built in 1964. Fanatics (185 N. Jefferson St.), a sports bar, closed their doors in March of 2012. Fanatics opened in October 2007. The bar was owned by Tony D’Acquisto. The bar had a capacity of 380.

Hilo Martini Lounge and Restaurant was also a tenant in the building (185 N. Jefferson St.). Hilo opened on May 6th, 2008. Hilo was also owned by the D’Acquisto family. It closed sometime during late 2011 and early 2012.

Anthony’s opened in the Hilo space in March 2013. The bar/lounge closed later that year. It was also owned by members of the D’Acquisto family.

The building was also at one-time home to the offices of Milwaukee Magazine.
