NEW YORK CITY-For a purchase price of $76.5 million–or approximately $414,000 per key–Chesapeake Lodging Trust has entered into an acquisition agreement for the soon-to-be completed 185-room Hyatt Place New York Midtown South. The deal will be set in stone when the hotel is finished which, according to Chesapeake, should take place in the third quarter of 2012.
