Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announces that it has
arranged $111.5 million in first mortgage financing for 80 Guest
Street, a 245,720-square-foot, trophy office and lab property
situated in the Boston Landing master-planned development in the
Allston/Brighton neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts.
HFF worked on behalf of the borrower, NB Development Group, to
secure the fixed-rate loan through MetLife Investment
Management.
Designed by famed architecture firm Elkus Manfredi, 80 Guest
Street was the second asset to deliver in Boston Landing in
September 2016. Home to New Balance’s world headquarters, Boston
Landing has emerged as the city’s newest live-work-play district
and will ultimately comprise 1.9 million square feet of office,
retail, residential and hotel space when fully built-out. The
project has a dominant presence along the Massachusetts Turnpike
feeding into Boston’s central business district and direct access
to the MBTA Boston Landing commuter rail station on site. 80 Guest
Street features eight floors of high-ceiling, office and lab space
averaging an open 28,000-square-foot floor plate above 15,000
square feet of amenity retail.
The property is fully leased to four office tenants and three
ground floor restaurant tenants, including Bose, Boston Bruins,
Roche and Proteostasis.
The asset also consists of a 55,000-square-foot ice rink
complex, known as the Warrior Ice Arena, which serves as the
practice facility for the Boston Bruins NHL franchise.
The HFF debt placement team was led by executive managing
director John Fowler, senior managing director Riaz Cassum and
associates Sam Campbell and Henry Schaffer. Jim Halliday, managing
director of NB Development Group, and Kevin Doyle, treasurer at New
Balance, led the borrower team in the transaction.
