GDSNY, Maxim Capital Group, and Sabal Investment Holdings Provide $50 Million Office Loan for 114 Crosby Street in SoHo

New York, NY – GDS Brightstar, the lending platform of New York-based real estate firm GDSNY, Maxim Capital Group, and Sabal Investment Holdings, the real estate investment management firm serving institutional investors, and  today announced that they closed a $50 million loan for 114 Crosby Street (also known as 580 Broadway), a newly renovated boutique office building located in SoHo and redeveloped by Chelsfield Group, a London-based developer, and RAM Holdings.

Located between Prince Street and West Houston, 114 Crosby Street is a class-A property totaling 12 stories and 144,000 square feet. The all-electric building features renovated lobbies on both Crosby Street and Broadway, 11,400-square-foot office floor plates with 13-foot ceiling heights, and a private roof terrace for office tenants with unobstructed views of the New York City skyline. More than half of the building has been leased since marketing launched last summer.

Additionally, the 14,400-square-foot ground-floor and lower-level retail space has been leased to Arc’teryx, the luxury outdoor apparel brand. In addition to the state-of-the-art apparel shopping experience, the company will also soon be opening a flagship Arc’teryx coffee shop in the building.

“We continue to identify high-quality assets, sponsors and real estate opportunities in New York for our partners and investors,” said Michael Kirchmann, CEO of real estate firm GDSNY. “114 Crosby is an iconic SoHo cast-iron building in a triple-A location, and we are proud to be a part of its continued success.”

The financing provides capital for further tenant fit-outs and lease-up.

“We are believers in high-quality Manhattan office and retail assets and are pleased to be able to provide a flexible financing solution in conjunction with GDSNY and Maxim Capital Group for this exceptional asset,” said Tal Seder, managing director of opportunistic investments at Sabal Investment Holdings. “We continue to be active participants across the capital stack, especially during periods of credit dislocation, and will continue to seek opportunities to invest in well located commercial real estate assets.”

“Chelsfield and RAM have done an incredible job on the renovation and lease up of 114 Crosby,” said Jason Bordenick, partner at Maxim Capital Group. “While many lenders have completely written off office for new investment, Maxim will continue to participate in the NYC office recovery by backing well-designed products in desirable locations with high-quality sponsorship. We are pleased to close another loan with our partners at Sabal and GDSNY, and continue to seek new credit opportunities together.”
