NEW YORK CITY—Meridian Capital Group has arranged $200 million in acquisition financing for 530 Broadway—a mixed-use property—on behalf of a venture led by Wharton Properties, A Jeff Sutton Co.
The three-year financing was provided by a national balance sheet lender and features a competitive LIBOR-based spread and two one-year extension options. The transaction was negotiated by Meridian managing director Ronnie Levine and VP Tal Savariego.
The 11-story, 194,500-square-foot property, at the corner of Spring street, is composed of three interconnecting buildings. The property sits directly across 529 Broadway, where a venture between Wharton, Aurora Capital Associates and Thor Equities is developing a 34,000-square-foot retail building.
Says Savariego, “530 Broadway not only has a irreplaceable location but its sponsorship is unique positioned to execute a value-add strategy over time and capture additional upside from the asset. Meridian leveraged its unique relationships and the collective experience and strength of the sponsorship group to negotiate a competitively priced floating-rate balance sheet loan, without syndication risk, that frees cash flow and provides refinancing flexibility as the investment strategy is realized.”
