Madison Realty Capital Provides $55M Construction Loan for Mixed-Use Development in Brooklyn

NEW YORK CITY — Madison Realty Capital has provided a $55 million construction loan for a mixed-use development underway at 948 Myrtle Ave. in Brooklyn. The loan will be used to complete construction of the project and to refinance existing debt, as well as cover any additional costs associated with the transaction. Meridian Capital previously provided a $15 million bridge loan to the borrower, an experienced local builder, for the project in late 2017. The developer plans to construct a three-building, 214,487-square-foot mixed-use project on the site that will feature rental and condominium units as well as ground-floor retail and parking. The developer acquired the site in December 2014 and has now completed all demolition, site excavation and foundation work. The project is slated for completion in 2020.
