FREDERICK, MD. — The Maryland Clean Energy Center (MCEC) has closed a $43 million loan for the development of the Marriott Downtown Frederick at Carroll Creek, a 204-room hotel underway in downtown Frederick. The Maryland Property Assessed Clean Energy (MDPACE) transaction represents the largest C-PACE loan in Maryland to date, according to MCEC, which is the administrator of the MDPACE program.
Nuveen Green Capital provided the 30-year, fixed-rate financing on behalf of the locally based developer, Plamondon Hospitality Partners. The C-PACE financing will fund sustainable initiatives at the property including advanced insulation, roofing, windows, HVAC systems, LED lighting, low-flow water fixtures and hot water systems.
The Marriott Downtown Frederick at Carroll Creek will be situated on 2.2 acres at 20 S. Carroll St. and feature more than 20,000 square feet of conference and event space, including a rooftop terrace and flexible indoor-outdoor venues. The hotel will also have two restaurants (one creekside and one rooftop bar and restaurant), a lobby bar and a coffee shop and market. The hotel’s target opening date was not released.
