Trinity Place Holdings Closes On New Luxury Mixed-Use Property
Acquisition Furthers Multi-Family
Acquisition Strategy
NEW YORK, NY (May 24, 2018)
Trinity Place Holdings Inc.
(NYSE: TPHS) announced today that it has closed on the previously announced acquisition of a newly built 105-unit, 12-story apartment
building in Park Slope, Brooklyn for $81.0 million from an affiliate of Adam America Equities, LLC. The acquisition of the Park
Slope property further expands Trinity Place Holdings core multi-family acquisition focused strategy, becoming the second property
in this portfolio.
Located on the border of the Park Slope and Gowanus neighborhoods
of Brooklyn at 237 11
th
Street, the property is one block from the 4
th
Avenue/9
th
Street subway
station, and a short walk to nearby amenities such as Prospect Park and Whole Foods Market.
Leasing began in August 2017 at the Park Slope building, with
the residential portion of the property approximately 63% leased. The property also includes 6,264 square feet of retail space,
a portion of which is leased to Starbucks Inc.
The acquisition was capitalized with 2-year financings in the
aggregate principal amount of $67.8 million. Such financings are interest-only and bear interest at the blended average rate of
3.72% over the 30-day LIBOR. The financings have a 1-year extension option.
Matt Messinger, CEO of Trinity Place Holdings, commented, "We
are excited to complete the acquisition of 237 11th. We believe there is a tremendous opportunity within key segments of the New
York market to aggregate a portfolio of Class A apartments (some with ancillary ground-floor retail or mixed-use characteristics)
which will generate stable, growing cash flow and offer long-term appreciation. We look forward to the continued execution of this
strategy in the years to come".
237 11
th
Street offers an array of modern amenities
that surpass what is available in the neighborhood's "brownstone" housing stock. Apartments feature a washer/dryer
in all units, tenant-controlled HVAC units, stainless steel appliances, and private outdoor terraces. Building-wide amenities include
a courtyard garden, party room, fitness center, tenant lounge, bicycle storage room, parking, and landscaped rooftop terrace. The
property's relative height offers panoramic views of the New York Harbor and the Manhattan skyline from upper floors and
the rooftop.
