One Third Ave completes the Alloy Block, joining the two projects in the first phase of development – 505 State Street, New York City’s first all-electric skyscraper and 489 State Street, the first two public schools designed to meet Passive House standards.
Funding sources include $375 million of debt from Kayne Anderson and $120 million of LP equity from The Vistria Group, a sustainability-driven investment firm. This deal represents The Vistria Group’s first ground-up development for its new real estate fund run by Margaret Anadu, former head of Goldman Sachs Urban Investment Group.
"Securing financing for One Third Ave marks a pivotal milestone not just for this project, but for what we believe is the future of sustainable urban development," said Alloy CEO Jared Della Valle. "As the second phase of the Alloy Block, One Third Ave builds on our commitment to high quality design and adhering to the highest environmental standards, ultimately raising the bar across the industry. Thanks to our partners at Kayne Anderson and The Vistria Group for supporting this project as we work to tackle climate change on a large scale.”
