 WASHINGTON, D.C. – September 28, 2016 – Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced today that it has arranged refinancing for 1400 Crystal Drive, a newly-renovated, 308,898-square-foot, trophy office building in the Crystal City submarket of Arlington, Virginia.

HFF worked on behalf of an affiliate of Lowe Enterprises Investors to place the floating-rate loan with KKR Financial.  Loan proceeds will be used to retire existing financing that HFF secured in 2013, and provide good news funding for lease-up. 

Renovated in 2013, 1400 Crystal is the premier office building in Crystal City offering 30’ x 30’ column spacing for open plan buildouts, and floor-to-ceiling glass providing expansive views of Washington, D.C. and the Potomac River.

 Tenants enjoy a full amenity package including a fitness center, rooftop terrace, conference center and a club room with flat screen TVs, a foosball table and various electronic games.

 Located in the heart of Crystal City, 1400 Crystal has direct access to the D.C. Metrorail system and is less than a half-mile from Ronald Reagan National Airport, two miles from the Pentagon, and less than three miles from downtown Washington, D.C. 

The HFF debt placement team representing the borrower was led by managing director Cary Abod and associate director Robert Carey.

“The borrower has signed leases with 11 tenants since completing the renovation, including seven different association groups and a host of private-sector businesses,” said Abod.  “Tenants have elected to lease at 1400 Crystal for the features that make it the top building in Crystal City: best-in-class tenant build-outs, unrivaled views and the array of amenities.”
