KANSAS CITY, MO. — Bayview PACE has provided a $20.5 million C-PACE loan for the construction of a $72 million headquarters facility for Master’s Transportation in Kansas City. Bayview says the C-PACE financing provided a complementary role in the capital stack of the development, which is now under construction and slated to open in 2025.
