HOUSTON-As planned, the deed to the 1.3-million-sf Enron headquarters at 1400 Smith St. yesterday was turned over to a group of investors led by local cardiologist, Dr. Antonio Pacifico, an Enron spokesman confirmed. The group paid $55.5 million for the CBD property.

The US Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York approved the sale Dec. 6, two days after it was auctioned, and set a Dec. 16 deadline for the closing. Court documents show the buyer was required to put 20% of the final price or $11.1 million on the line before the closing. The auction kicked off with a $50-million minimum ask and a required $3-million down payment once the winner was determined.
