NEW YORK, NY - HFF announced it has arranged $32 million in non-recourse financing for the development of a 200-key, best-in-class, boutique hotel in Manhattan’s Bowery neighborhood, which will be operated by a top-tier brand name operator.

HFF worked on behalf of the borrower, a joint venture between Omnia Group and Northwind Group, to secure the loan through a global asset management company.

The site is located at 223-225 Bowery, south of Houston between Prince and Spring Streets.  Due for completion in 2015/2016, the hotel will include an expansive rooftop amenity space along with restaurant and music space with entrances from both Bowery and Freeman Alley.
