The loan was made to Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group and BRP Companies. It includes proceeds to repay existing debt, return equity to the sponsor and provide term to allow for condominium sales. The financing was arranged by Preston Flammang of Cushman & Wakefield’s New York City office.
Square Mile Capital principal Sean Reimer said, “We are pleased to continue our lending relationship with Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group and develop new ties with BRP, an experienced owner, developer, and operator with a strong track record within New York City, including the Harlem neighborhood.
