New York--On behalf of Stonehenge Management, Meridian Capital Group has arranged $151 million in financing for The Ritz Plaza (pictured left), a multifamily property located at 235 West 48th St. in New York City.
The Ritz Plaza is a 43-story building featuring 479 luxury rental apartments and 30,000 square feet of retail and office space. The 10-year fixed rate loan has an interest rate of 5.34 percent and features two years of interest only payments. “The timing of the rate lock was precise,” says Abe Hirsch of Meridian. “The borrower was able to take full advantage of an extreme single day drop in treasury yields to achieve such an attractive fixed rate.”
The loan was placed with Freddie Mac via the New York office of Walker & Dunlop.
The newly renovated Ritz Plaza includes amenities such as a fitness center, indoor pool and newly remodeled social center for tenants.
