Peachtree Group Originates $42M Acquisition Loan for Atlanta Financial Center Office Campus in Buckhead

by John Nelson

ATLANTA — Peachtree Group has originated a $42 million loan for the acquisition and repositioning of Atlanta Financial Center, a 914,774-square-foot office campus in Atlanta’s Buckhead district. The borrower, Miami-based Banyan Street Capital, recently acquired the office campus, which comprises three interconnected towers situated on 13.1 acres atop Ga. Highway 400 with immediate access to a MARTA station. The floating-rate loan carries a 36-month initial term with a 12-month extension option. The loan is backed by completion, interest and carry guarantees from Banyan Street Capital. After being acquired in 2016 by a Sumitomo Corp. affiliate for $222.5 million, Atlanta Financial Center faced tenant departures, softening fundamentals and shifting capital priorities. Banyan Street Capital plans to reposition the campus, starting with the lease-up of the North Tower, which is being supported by capital expenditure reserves and funds for tenant improvements and leasing. The sponsor will also explore larger tenant opportunities and future redevelopment options.

CLARKSVILLE, TENN. — Hamilton Development has broken ground on NorthPark Logistics, a 2.1 million-square-foot industrial park in Clarksville, a city in northern Tennessee. The project marks the first Class A speculative industrial park in Clarksville, according to the Nashville-based developer. The 200-acre site at 4175 Guthrie Highway will feature 14 buildings at full build-out. Located within 50 miles of Nashville, the NorthPark Logistics site is directly served by R.J. Corman rail, offers immediate access to I-24, is within an hour’s drive from both Clarksville Regional Airport and Nashville International Airport and is adjacent to the $3.2 billion LG Chem plant. In addition to LG Electronics, Clarksville is home to industrial tenants such as Hankook Tire, Google, Bridgestone and Amazon. “As industrial employers continue to invest billions of dollars in the area, we believe there will be increasing demand for institutional-quality industrial space,” says Whitfield Hamilton, CEO of Hamilton Development. NorthPark Logistics will feature opportunities for flexible build-to-suit or speculative space, with the ability to accommodate tenants ranging from 18,200 to 1.2 million square feet.
