Blanchard, Jon — BLVD Hospitality
Founder
BLVD Hospitality
THE LATEST: Last year was particularly busy for BLVD Hospitality, which opened several trendy hospitality options. Besides being the landlord for the Arts District building that's home the Soho House outpost, Soho Warehouse, the company also opened the downtown Hoxton Hotel in October. Currently under construction: California's first CitizenM hotel, on which BLVD is partnering with the eponymous Amsterdam-based hotel chain.
BACKGROUND: Under Blanchard, BLVD Hospitality has developed more than 1.2 million square feet with more than 950 hotel rooms across $700 million worth of real estate transactions. Blanchard founded the company in 2009 with the goal of restoring and transforming historically significant buildings into unique hospitality experiences. One of his best-known projects is the 2014 conversion of the 1920s-era Spanish Gothic United Artist Theatre and office building into the 182-room Ace Hotel. Together with co-founder Nicolo Rusconi, Blanchard also oversees investments and strategies for BLVD Cos., which includes BLVD Hospitality, Chicas Tacos, and Roadhouse Hotel and Junction.
