CHARLOTTE, NC –– Holliday
Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced it has closed the recapitalization of and
arranged joint venture equity for a 229-unit, Class A multi-housing and
10,000-square-foot retail property, formerly known as Solis Ninth Street, on Ninth Street in Durham, North Carolina.
HFF assisted the co-owner
in the recapitalization of the property and also arranged a new joint venture
equity partnership with Raleigh, North Carolina-based Blue Heron Asset
Management, LLC. This is the sixth
acquisition for Blue Heron’s Real Estate Opportunity Fund II.
The Durham-based Dickson family, which has
been involved in Solis Ninth Street since its rezoning, remain invested in the
development. The family’s joint venture
developer and co-owner, Terwilliger Pappas Multifamily Partners, has sold its
stake in the property.
The property, which is in
the process of being rebranded as 810|Ninth, is located at 810 9th Street
within walking distance of Duke University, Duke Medical Center, Whole Foods,
Harris Teeter, numerous restaurants, shops and other urban amenities, including
local gyms, bars and entertainment venues.
