From today's Real Deal re: financing:
3. Durst and State — $125 million
A Queens project grabbed the number three spot as well, with a $125 million loan from the New York State Housing Finance Agency to the Durst Organization for building one of the company’s Hallets Point project, located at 1-02 26th Avenue. The bonds for the loan were bought by Wells Fargo. City Hall recently and abruptly canceled $43.5 million in public funding for building seven of Hallets Point in the wake of a feud between Mayor Bill de Blasio and the company.
The first two buildings are nearing completion and they look really nice. Good views of them from Astoria Park.
