670 East 137th St., is a two-story industrial property, located just a few blocks from the iconic History Channel building. The property’s central Bronx location offers close proximity the Bruckner Expressway, the Major Deegan Expressway, Robert F. Kennedy Bridge and the Williamsburg Avenue Bridge and is a 15-minute drive from Manhattan. “The sponsor owns an identical asset across the street and is very familiar with the property and the area,” said Edelstein. “Meridian’s ability to procure favorable bridge financing, coupled with the client’s knowledge of the market and the property, will significantly enhance the value of the asset in the short-term as they execute their value-add business plan.” Founded in 1991, Meridian Capital Group is America’s most active debt broker and one of the nation’s leading commercial real estate finance advisory firms.
