HARTFORD-Buchanan Street Partners is funding a non-recourse mezzanine loan for City Place I, a 38-story office building here. The 885,000-square-foot, class A property is using the loan for tenant improvement projects.

The owners of the property Liberty Associates acquired $39-million loan from People’s United Bank, which did not fully cover the cost of renovation on the 93%-leased building. The $10-million loan is a three-year fixed pay-rate and all-in rate with a one-year extension. The $39-million loan is also three-year with a single year extension, but holds a floating rate over LIBOR. The property needed roughly $49 million for the renovations, but the senior lender had an unofficial cap for their lending amount, explained Wayne Brandt, managing director of Buchanan Street Partners.
