The Slade Condominiums, 1190 East Washington Street, Downtown Tampa, FL

Matt Mitchell
TAMPA, FL – Nov. 18, 2015 – Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced today that it has closed the sale of and arranged joint venture equity and acquisition financing for The Slade, a 214-unit, eight-story bulk condominium transaction in downtown Tampa, Florida.

HFF’s Tampa-based multi-housing team, led by Matt Mitchell, marketed the offering on behalf of Crescent Heights®.  HFF’s capital markets team, led by Chris Drew, arranged a joint venture between Cardinal Point Management and Long Wharf Real Estate Partners, which purchased the asset for an undisclosed amount. 

Additionally, HFF’s capital markets team worked on behalf of the new owners to place fixed-rate acquisition financing with CapitalSource, a division of Pacific Western Bank.

Completed in 2009, The Slade features two eight-story residential towers that encompass one-, two- and three-bedroom floor plans averaging 935 square feet each.  The offering included 214 of the 294 total condominium units and 11,613 of the 13,193 square feet of ground floor retail space. 

Property amenities include landscaped courtyards, infinity swimming pool with spa, two-story fitness center with yoga room, club room, cyber café, 24-hour concierge service and an attached, six-story parking garage.

Chris Drew
  Situated at 1190 East Washington Street in downtown Tampa’s Channelside neighborhood, the property offers immediate access to Tampa’s central business district, the Amelie Arena, Ybor City and the proposed site of the University of South Florida’s new medical school campus.

“The investment market is excited about the growth of downtown Tampa, especially in Channelside.  As the neighborhood continues to build out and add amenities, The Slade is well positioned to serve the growing demand for residences, whether as rentals or as for-sale product,” commented Mitchell.

“We have seen a significant increase in demand from institutional capital to invest in downtown Tampa and Channelside.  

"We anticipate this demand will only increase further as additional projects are delivered and the Channelside/Downtown market continues to evolve into one of Florida’s most active live-work-play environments,” added Drew.

John Crossman Continues Family Legacy of Giving With Bethune-Cookman University Endowed Scholarship


John Crossman
ORLANDO, FL – John Crossman, president of Crossman & Company and son of the late Rev. Kenneth C. Crossman, is continuing his family’s legacy of giving and educational philanthropy with a new endowed scholarship for students at Bethune-Cookman University.  

The renewable scholarship will be an annual award for qualified students entering the B-CU real estate program or business with real estate concentration.  Crossman’s overall goal is to maintain a $100,000 balance for the Crossman & Company Endowed Real Estate Scholarship. 

Crossman has already started his search for donors and contributors, and is actively seeking community partners to help him reach his goal and start their own B-CU endowment scholarship. 

“There is a genuine need for African-American students who seek a career in commercial and residential real estate and we want to help achieve that,” Crossman said.

“I was thrilled to hear that John Crossman has developed the first ever scholarship for real estate studies,” said Congresswoman Corrine Brown.  “With this donation, B-CU will be able to provide yet another path to success for its students interested in business career, specifically, in the areas of housing and real estate.”

Corrine Brown
“John Crossman is an outstanding Florida leader. His passion for real estate, and for supporting the study of real estate in our universities, is remarkable.  The students of Bethune-Cookman are blessed to have an advocate and patron like John Crossman,” says Senator George LeMieux.

Crossman is no stranger to the B-CU campus or giving back in the name of education; and he is eager to continue his journey.  He and his family launched an endowment fund in 2004 in memory of Reverend Kenneth C. Crossman and donors have contributed more than $132,000 over the years.  

The Rev. Kenneth C. Crossman Endowment Fund gives renewable, annual contracts and has helped many students.

Downtown St. Petersburg’s Morgan Stanley Tower and City Center Reach 100% Occupancy

  
 
Morgan Stanley Tower, Downtown St. Petersburg, FL
ST PETERSBURG, FL – A 1,700 square foot lease with Paradise Marketing has brought Morgan Stanley Tower in downtown St. Petersburg to 100% occupancy.  

The 17-story, 190,000 square foot office building was 65% occupied just two years ago when a joint venture consisting of affiliates of Feldman Equities, Tower Realty Partners and Second City Capital Partner acquired the building.

Since the purchase and a multimillion dollar renovation the group has executed nearly 70,000 square feet of leases at the building. Notable deals have included Morgan Stanley, Enstar, Capital Resorts and RE/MAX Metro. The Paradise Marketing deal was brokered by Melanie Jackson of Colliers International.

 Larry Feldman, CEO of Feldman Equities spearheads leasing and redevelopment efforts while Tower Realty Partners handles management responsibilities.

This is the second downtown St. Petersburg office building the joint venture has renovated and brought to 100% occupancy.  

The nearby, 242,000 square foot City Center office building reached that milestone earlier this year. In a little more than two years following a major renovation, the ownership increased occupancy at City Center from 44% to 100% leased.

A third acquisition, First Central Tower is currently under renovation with over three full floor deals executed since its acquisition just a year ago – including Twinlabs’ relocation from New York. Redevelopment plans for First Central Tower include an extensive Gensler designed lobby renovation, upgraded tenant floor elevator lobbies, tenant corridors and restrooms.

Melanie Jackson
 In addition, ownership is nearing completion of an amenity package which will include a new concierge desk, a state-of-the-art luxury fitness center and conference center.

 In keeping with current office space trends towards hip, high-tech spaces, space has also been allocated to a tenant lounge area with a 24/7 “chill zone” with the look and feel of a first class airport lounge.

 The lounge area will include soft seating, large flat screen TVs, iPad chairs and free WIFI. In addition, renovations will include a completely new modern elevator system, new elevator cabs and an upgrade to the air conditioning system. The parking garage will be upgraded with upgraded lighting, paint and graphics.

 “We’ve had incredible success in the Downtown St. Petersburg market,” commented co-owner Larry Feldman, CEO of Feldman Equities whose company’s focus has been on purchasing underperforming assets and increasing value through renovation and building upgrades while using their lower cost basis to implement an aggressively priced leasing program.

Larry Feldman






“Of course one of the most important amenities has been built into the deal - the incredible downtown St. Petersburg location, continued Feldman.

 “St. Pete has one of the largest urban waterfronts, a truly walkable downtown with 7 museums, over 45 restaurants, a theater for the performing arts, a major league baseball stadium, soccer stadium and nearly a dozen marinas.”

Over the last 20 years, Feldman Equities and Tower Realty Partners have successfully joint ventured on the acquisition of millions of square feet of underperforming office buildings.

 Most recently the joint venture has partnered on First Central tower, Morgan Stanley Tower and City Center in downtown St Petersburg, Wells Fargo Center in downtown Tampa and Fountain Square II in Tampa’s Westshore Business District.
