The portfolio comprises the newest apartment developments in the Kearny Mesa submarket, Ariva Apartments and Vive on the Park. The properties are proximate to SR-163 (Cabrillo Freeway) and Interstate 15. 

The 253-unit Ariva was completed in 2014 and consists of two podium-style buildings, each with four stories over a two-story podium garage and separated by a two-acre park.

 The studio, one- and two-bedroom units range in size from 595 to 1,241 square feet and feature quartz countertops; hardwood cabinetry with decorator pulls; stainless steel GE appliance packages that include gas ranges; wood-planked laminate flooring; full-sized, in-unit, front-load washers and dryers; and nine-foot ceilings.

Vive is a 550-unit, mid-rise apartment complex consisting of five stories that house a variety of studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom units. 

Tim Wright
Constructed in two phases in 2017 and 2019, units feature slate appliances, five-burner gas ranges, tiled backsplash, stone countertops, wood-plank style flooring, front-loading washers and dryers, and spacious walk-in closets. 

Vive’s amenity package includes a variety of lifestyle and entertainment options such as rooftop lounges with a pool and spa, multi-level fitness center, business center, sand fire pits and wooded elevated deck, clubroom, game room, social club and onsite storage.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing Sunroad was led by senior managing directors Aldon Cole and Tim Wright and associate Bharat Madan.

“Sunroad’s long-term vision on providing housing in a central San Diego market that had historically been overlooked is a testimony to their understanding of what the San Diego housing market needs,” Cole said.

Earlier this year, the deal team also arranged $145 million in construction financing on behalf of Sunroad Enterprises for the development of Vive LUX, a 442-unit, Class A apartment project within the Centrum Master Plan that is located adjacent to Ariva and Vive.

JLL arranges financing for Elevate Apartment Tower in Chicago’s Lincoln Park


ELEVATE, a newly built, 11-story luxury apartment building located at 930 West Altgeld Street in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood.

CHICAGO, IL – JLL announces it has arranged financing for ELEVATE, a newly built, 11-story luxury apartment building located in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, a joint venture between Baker Development Company and USAA Real Estate, to place the long-term, fixed-rate loan Fannie Mae through Greystone.

ELEVATE contains 191 luxury apartment units totaling approximately 175,000 square feet, more than 16,000 square feet of ground-floor retail and 152 indoor parking spaces. 

ELEVATE contains 191 luxury apartment units totaling approximately 175,000 square feet, more than 16,000 square feet of ground-floor retail and 152 indoor parking spaces

Completed in 2018, the property incorporates a “V” shape floorplate design featuring 25 standard floor plans along with 16 penthouse-level apartments, including three duplex penthouse-level “sky homes”. 

ELEVATE also provides 20,000 square feet of amenity space, including a third-floor landscaped common-area courtyard as well as a roof-level amenity floor that provides panoramic city skyline views, an outdoor pool with wraparound sundeck, state-of-the-art fitness center with personal audio/video and yoga studio, smartphone keyless entry, indoor dog spa and outdoor dog run. 

Daniel Kaufman
Located at 930 W. Altgeld Street, the property is walkable to the lakefront, the Lincoln Park Zoo and multiple entertainment and retail amenities. In addition, ELEVATE is less than two blocks from the Fullerton “L” station, which provides a short commute to downtown.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the borrower was led by senior managing director Danny Kaufman and senior director Trent Niederberger.

“ELEVATE is Lincoln Park’s first newly built residential high-rise in more than 30 years,” Kaufman said.  “Due to the scarcity of large developable parcels and an historically difficult approvals process, the barriers to entry in the submarket are high, which will help ensure the property’s competitive advantage well into the future.”

Trent Niederberger
“The Baker/USAA Real Estate team has created a truly exceptional addition to the neighborhood,” Niederberger added. “ELEVATE gives residents unparalleled views of the city and unrivaled unit plans and amenities.”

SVN leads marketing effort for the development of Panama City’s SweetBay Town Center


Ashley Bloom
                                                                                                                     Panama City, FL  – SVN will be leading the marketing efforts for the development of the SweetBay Town Center in Panama City.

SweetBay is one of the largest urban infill projects currently underway in Florida. Community leaders are expecting it to significantly boost recovery efforts for the state’s northwest region battered by Hurricane Michael, which made landfall last October as a Category 5.

The St. Andrew Bay Land Co., part of HomeFed Corp., developed the concept for the SweetBay Town Center a few years before the hurricane struck.

With 3,200 residential units approved for building, the 700 acres will be the core of the existing SweetBay Planned Development Community built on the site of the old Panama City Regional Airport.

Mark McQueen
Many of the homes have already been sold during the initial phase. A 300-unit Class A apartment project is also planned.

SweetBay’s amenities include five miles of bay access to residents, a planned marina village, nature trails, an initial pool and sports court, and the University Academy  – Florida’s top-ranking free K-8 public charter school in 2018.

SVN experts in land, marina, retail and multi-family from around the state have commenced marketing efforts to bring the project to fruition. Leading the team of five SVN offices involved in the effort is SVN Lotus.

“This is such a remarkable community and we’re delighted to be involved in this effort,” said Ashley Bloom, SVN Lotus managing director. “It’s a gem on the shoreline, a wonderful place for families to raise children. With the bay access, there’s a host of recreational activities available. People can access the Town Center easily, via golf carts – its good living.”

The SweetBay Town Center project has created much-needed excitement and support from the Bay CountyEconomic Development Alliance, DestinationPanama City, elected officials, businesses, community leaders and citizens.

“SweetBay is a vital part of Panama City’s rebuilding effort, which is more than just a restoration: We’re growing our economy and community to become the premier city in the Panhandle,” said Mark McQueen, city manager, Panama City.

Jacob Fish
He added that the effort will include the addition of multi-family housing, boutique retail shops, restaurants, coffee shops, gyms, a grocery store and more.

“We plan to attract commercial industries, such as retail, hospitality, aviation, maritime, manufacturing,” he said. “These are all desperately needed for Panama City to thrive.”

“We’re so looking forward to the continued development of this community and working with the people at SVN,” said Jacob Fish, director of development, St. Andrew Bay Land Company.

“SweetBay is one of the Florida Panhandle’s premier spots to live, and we’re encouraged to see all the plans in store for this community. The future here is exciting.”
