NEW YORK CITY — A joint venture between locally based developer Lonicera Partners and New York-based investment firm Rabina will develop a 295-unit apartment tower at 55 Willoughby St. in downtown Brooklyn. The building will house 206 market-rate apartments and 89 affordable housing units, as well as 3,500 square feet of retail space. Amenities will include a fitness center, rooftop terrace, lounge, media room and coworking space. Jeffrey Julien, Chris Peck, Nicco Lupo, Rob Hinckley, Geoff Goldstein, Marko Kazanjian and Alex Staikos of JLL arranged floating-rate construction debt through Santander Bank and City National Bank for the project.
