The center is located at the intersection of East Slauson and South Central avenues in the city’s South Central neighborhood. Juanita Tate is anchored by CVS and Northgate González Markets. It was recently purchased by the borrowers, Optimus Properties and Infinity Redevelopment, who plan to make minor upgrades and modifications to the newly built property. The 10-year, fixed-rate loan features a 4.1 percent interest rate with two years of interest-only and a 30-year amortization schedule. It was arranged by Shahin Yazdi of George Smith Partners. The center was originally developed in partnership with the City of Los Angeles and the non-profit organization Concerned Citizens of South Los Angeles (CCSCLA) to bring retail options and jobs to the region.

It’s no longer a secret that Brooklyn is booming, particularly the borough’s retail scene. Retail rents have climbed continuously over the last five years. Retail density has increased almost exponentially. A recent study by CPEX of Brooklyn’s notable retail corridors (meaning areas with rents averaging more than $35 per square foot) found the number of these corridors has increased 80 percent in just two years. But what’s driving Brooklyn’s record pace of retail growth? Several market factors have created a perfect storm for Brooklyn’s retail resurgence. Development in the borough has peaked over the past two years, with permits for new residential developments up 116 percent in that timespan. Nearly 20,000 new units are in the pipeline, almost twice the number of permits in Manhattan and 149 percent more than the other outer boroughs combined. The office vacancy rate has dropped to 4.2 percent in Brooklyn, the lowest in the United States. Tourism continues to spike thanks to the borough’s noteworthy parks, the year-round arts and cultural events in the Brooklyn Academy of Music (BAM) Cultural District, and the Barclays Center’s sporting and concert events. In the meantime, hotel developments are trying to keep pace with the influx of tourists …
