PITTSBURGH — First Niagara’s Commercial Real Estate Group has closed a $40 million loan with PMC Property Group for a mixed-use property in downtown Pittsburgh. Proceeds of the loan will go to the continued redevelopment of the property, which will include 241 multifamily units, 133,000 square feet of office space and 6,200 square feet of retail space, including two restaurants and a coffee and juice bar. Located at 425 Sixth Ave., the 30-story skyscraper was originally built in 1953 as the headquarters of the Aluminum Company of America. Being developed by PMC Property Group, the property is slated for completion by March 2016. Strada is the architect of the project.
