FLORHAM PARK, NJ – The New Jersey office of HFF (Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P.) announced today that it has arranged $64.78 million in debt and joint venture equity for Eisenhower Corporate Campus, (top right photo) a 384,828-square-foot, Class A office building in Livingston, New Jersey.

HFF senior managing director Jon Mikula (top left photo) and managing director Jim Cadranell (middle right photo) worked exclusively on behalf of Eastman Companies and The Sagner Companies to secure a $44.7 million, adjustable-rate loan through Wells Fargo Bank and TD BankNorth.

Fidelity Real Estate Group provided $20.08 million in joint venture equity. Proceeds are being used for the redevelopment of the office building.

Eisenhower Corporate Campus has four interconnected buildings surrounding a four-story atrium lobby. Building amenities at the complex include a full-service cafeteria with seating, a 200-person stadium-style seating auditorium, a fitness center and executive conference center.

Situated on a 33.6-acre campus, the property is located at the intersection of Route 10 and Eisenhower Parkway close to Interstates 280 and 287 approximately 20 miles west of New York City in Livingston, New Jersey.
