PORTLAND, ORE. – DiNapoli Capital Partners has purchased the 100-unit Honeyman Hardware Lofts in Portland for $37 million. The community is located at 555 NW Park Ave., in the city’s Downtown Pearl District. Honeyman Hardware also features 10,800 square feet of street-level retail space. It was originally built between 1903 and 1920 as three individual buildings. All three buildings were renovated and converted into residential and retail uses between 1989 and 1991. The Cotter Building, the largest of the three structures, was originally home to the Honeyman Hardware Company. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Cotter Building now houses 66 residential units. The remaining two buildings, the Bindery Building and the Metro Building, both contain 17 additional units. Select Honeyman Hardware apartments feature two-level floor plans, exposed brick walls, vaulted ceilings, private balconies, Jacuzzi baths and built-in window seats. The seller, a joint venture between Lubert-Adler Partners and Security Properties, had invested $4.9 million to upgrade the community. It also converted a portion of the retail space into 11 live-work lofts, in addition to creating a new resident lounge with free Wi-Fi and a gourmet coffee bar. The sale was executed by HFF’s Ira Virden.
