The Schatz Companies


The Schatz Companies of Chicago’s Streeterville neighborhood have contributed to the development of the area’s skyline and cultural life since the 1950s.

Jay Jack Schatz initiated the Schatz Companies with his post-war co-ownership of the Chez Paree, Chicago’s famed nightclub that featured the greatest entertaining legends of its era. Jimmy Durante, Sammy Davis, Jr., Sophie Tucker, and Nat King Cole were among the hundreds of luminaries to regularly entertain packed-in crowds at the Chez.

Schatz later participated in the development of numerous hotel and residential real estate projects in Streeterville. He also managed the iconic loft building at the corner of Fairbanks and Ontario Streets now known as the Schatz Building.

The Schatz Companies include Domu.com, an online apartment listing company that has transformed the leasing and apartment search processes for Chicago landlords and tenants. We also own and manage the Schatz Building, an iconic mixed-use loft building in Streeterville designed by renowned Chicago architect Benjamin Marshall. The building is home to tenants in various creative industries and restaurants.
