HONOLULU, HAWAII — The Howard Hughes Corporation has received a $350 million syndicated loan for two condo development projects in Honolulu. The condos, called Waiea and Anaha, will be situated within Ward Village.
Ward Village is a 60-acre, urban master-planned community located between the city’s downtown and Waikiki. The community will feature more than 4,000 high-rise residences and more than one million square feet of retail space.
The retail will be surrounded by outdoor public gathering places and pedestrian-friendly streets. Ward Village will be anchored by a four-acre public park that will serve as a multipurpose gathering space.
The two condo developments offer views of the Pacific Ocean and Diamond Head. Amenities including fitness centers, swimming pools, a library, children’s play areas and dog parks. The projects will also feature about 24,000 square feet of retail space and 989 parking spaces.
The A-note will be spread between five lenders, including Wells Fargo, Ullico, Washington Capital Management, First Hawaiian Bank and American Savings Bank. The note is part of a larger $600 million construction loan, which was secured by JLL for the Howard Hughes Corporation in late 2014.
Financing was provided by Blackstone Real Estate Debt Strategies. The JLL team was led by Randy Fleisher and Adam Mengacci.
