NEW YORK CITY-CB Richard Ellis Capital Markets New York has arranged close to $30 million in financing for the land acquisition of 67-69 Laight St., a 20,000-sf land parcel located in Tribeca. The loan was financed on behalf of Spanish-based Arranz Acinas Group, whose prospective development plans call for a 100,000-sf to 140,000-sf luxury condominium.
Construction for the condo development, equipped with amenities such as 100 parking spaces, is expected to be complete in 2010. In addition, the original landmark facade will be incorporated into the new structure, as designated by the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission.
The two adjacent lots, located between Washington and Greenwich streets, are part of Tribeca's mixed-use special purpose district, according to a company statement. As a whole, the Tribeca luxury condominium developments have recently benefited from strong appreciation growth.
Spearheading the deal was Juan-Carlos Bujeda of the Madrid office and Keith Braddish of the New York City office. Also involved in the transaction were Barbara Pereira and Natale Giostra of the CBRE Capital Markets Madrid office. The groups secured 20 million euro in loans financed by Banco Sabadell and Banco Popular on behalf of the developer.
"We partnered with the CBRE Capital Markets Madrid office to provide this Spanish-based developer with the most cost effective capital in the marketplace," Keith says in a prepared statement. "Numerous domestic and foreign capital sources were approached. However, in the end the client's relationship banks won out."
