MARIETTA, GA. — Walker & Dunlop has arranged $59 million in bridge and equity financing for Newmarket Business Park, a 471,486-square-foot office park in Marietta, roughly 20 miles north of Atlanta. Mark Strauss and Rob Quarton of Walker & Dunlop arranged the floating-rate bridge loan with full-term, interest-only payments through a debt fund on behalf of the borrowers, Praelium Commercial Real Estate and South Street Partners. A hedge fund invested the equity portion. Newmarket Business Park includes four single-story and two two-story office buildings constructed between 1983 and 1985. The asset was 85 percent leased at the time of closing to tenants including The Home Depot.
