Built in 1923, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[3] AboutDesigned by architectural firm Holabird and Roach for capitalists Chester and Raymond Cook of Chicago, the Aquila Court Building was built in a "U" shape and designed after the Bargello in Italy.[2] The faces of George and Aquila Cook were emblazoned on the front of the building. A mixed-use building from its inception, the building's interior courtyard featured extensive landscape gardening. The original garden design resembled an Italian formal garden with stone paths, pools with goldfish, canals and numerous plants. A four-story building, the original design included court-level commercial space and studio apartments, as well as office space. The building has undergone several major renovations. In 1972 the gardens were removed and completely covered with marble slabs and fountains.[4] In 1996 it was renovated by the Sheraton corporation and in 2006 by the Magnolia Hotels chain.[5] See also
