TF Cornerstone is refinancing its recently delivered Long Island City multifamily building, Bud South, for $347.4 million.

The site at 2-20 Malt Drive is a part of a waterfront development that calls for three towers and 1,386 units in total, according to a report from the Commercial Observer. The project is designed to deliver luxury urban-style housing to the Hunter’s Point South neighborhood.

Bud South stands 33 stories and features 575 units (173 affordable) and amenities including a fitness center, a swimming pool, co-working spaces and more than 13,000 square feet of retail.

The loan on the tower was backed by Fannie Mae's Near Stabilization program and provided by M&T Realty Capital Corp. M&T's Michael Casey, Michael Edelman, Joe Pizzutelli and Michael Jean-Pierre originated the deal.

TF Cornerstone said that the refinancing underscores the "strength and depth of our relationship with Fannie Mae and M&T," according to CO.

Bud South is near TF's other LIC properties, including 4540 Center Boulevard and 55-01 Second Street.
