Winter & Company arranged $16 million in financing for a 13-building, approximately 550,000 square foot, mixed-use rental property for the world\u2019s largest artists\u2019 community which occupies an entire city block in Manhattan\u2019s Greenwich Village neighborhood. The iconic property was the first major adaptive re-use project overseen by esteemed architect Richard Meier, resulting in 384 residential units and 82 commercial units, with a range of uses which include artist\u2019s studios, theatres, and dance studios. The complex was originally constructed in 1926 as the headquarters of Bell Telephone Laboratories, before being converted to its present us in 1968.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 10-year loan will amortize on a 25-year schedule with surplus proceeds slated to be utilized to finance an array of renovation and capital improvement projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since the property is owned and operated as a non-profit organization, arranging the financing presented numerous challenges that needed to be overcome, as well as finding a lender both open to the non-profit\u2019s mission, as well as cognizant of the property\u2019s enormous intrinsic and future value given its size and its prime West Village location.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
5 years earlier, Winter & Company had previously arranged $9,800,000 in financing to address an earlier round of renovations and capital improvements on the complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
