Brooklyn, NY NKF Capital Markets arranged a $60 million loan on behalf of Slate Property Group, secured through JP Morgan Asset Management, for the recapitalization of 325 Lafayette Ave. The team was led by NKF Capital Markets’ vice chairmen and co-heads, debt & structured finance, Dustin Stolly and Jordan Roeschlaub, along with senior managing director Daniel Fromm. The financing will be used for the recapitalization of the class-A apartment development expected for substantial completion in the fall.
Located in the Clinton Hill neighborhood, the eight-story property will comprise 116 apartment units, with 40 parking spaces and 16,943 s/f of street level retail space pre-leased to Key Food and Starbucks.
325 Lafayette Avenue will offer condo-quality finishes and a premier amenity package featuring a fully-equipped rooftop, state-of-the-art fitness center and resident’s media and gaming lounge.
“325 Lafayette’s comprehensive, modern amenity package, as well as excellent transit access enabled lenders to underwrite an accelerated lease-up program,” said Stolly. “This maximized loan proceeds before completion and facilitated the swift launch of this project.”
“The pre-leased commitment of Key Food and Starbucks further speaks to the premier location in the heart of the rapidly transforming Clinton Hill neighborhood,” said Roeschlaub.
