 Units have stainless steel appliances, quartz stone countertops, designer fixtures, walk-in closets, polished concrete floors or distressed wood-style flooring, in-unit security systems, and balconies/patios offering views of the garden, city skyline or Hollywood Hills.

The property is located at 3221 West Temple Street just off Highway 101 and Silver Lake Boulevard in the Silver Lake submarket, which is proximate to Dodger Stadium, Griffith Park and downtown Los Angeles.

The HFF debt placement team representing the borrower was led by director Jeff Sause.

“Placing long-term financing on this asset demonstrates both our longstanding commitment to the vibrant Silver Lake submarket, as well as the banking community’s confidence in Sharp,” said David J. Shophet, a principal of Sharp Capital.  “We look forward to continuing to participate in further development within this growing area of Los Angeles.”

JLL’s Buckeye Land Sale Ushers In Major Cardinal IG Glass Development; Manufacturer to build 250,000-SF project that will generate 100 new jobs

  
 
Anthony J. Lydon
PHOENIX, AZ – On behalf of Evergreen Devco Inc. and Evergreen-Apache & Southern LLC (Evergreen), the Phoenix office of JLL has completed the sale of 77 acres of land in Buckeye, Arizona to Cardinal IG Companies (Cardinal IG).

Cardinal IG will develop a 250,000-square-foot, build-to-suit advanced glass manufacturing facility at the site. The project will bring 100 new jobs to the City of Buckeye.

Cardinal IG is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cardinal Glass Industries, a leading glass manufacturer with more than 6,000 employees and 37 manufacturing locations across the U.S.

 Its new custom built, sate-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Buckeye will produce high-quality, energy efficient insulating glass for residential window and door companies across the globe.

The development is expected to generate nearly $90,000 of direct annual revenue to the city, not including the indirect and induced positive fiscal impacts to the city of approximately $5 million over 20 years.

“This is Buckeye’s first significant industrial employment investment since 1992,” said JLL Managing Director Anthony J. Lydon, who along with JLL Managing Director Marc Hertzberg represented Evergreen in the land sale. “It was a perfect mix of a prime location and Buckeye’s 2015 decision to waive the municipal sales tax for energy to qualifying manufacturers.”

Marc Hertzberg
“The combination will return mutual benefits for Cardinal IG and the City of Buckeye for decades,” said Hertzberg.

Buckeye Mayor Jackie Meck agreed that the land sale is a pivotal one for the city. 

“This is a great company that Buckeye can partner with for many years, and it will provide great jobs for our residents,” Meck said. “I also hope that having Cardinal select Buckeye for locating its operations here will kick-start other manufacturing development in our city.”

The new Cardinal IG site is located just south of the southeast corner of Apache Road and Southern Avenue, approximately three miles south of Interstate 10 and three miles east of Highway 85 in Buckeye, Arizona.

Situated just north of the city’s historic downtown, the site is part of 152 acres controlled by Evergreen and marketed by JLL. Lydon and Hertzberg continue to market a remaining 75 acres for Evergreen on the direct southeast corner of Apache and Southern, and located immediately north of the Cardinal IG site.

Baird & Warner To Open New Office in Chicago’s South Loop

. 
Laura Ellis

 CHICAGO, IL — Baird & Warner, Chicagoland’s largest, locally owned, independent residential real estate services company, announced it has signed a lease for a new office located in the Transportation Building at 620 S. Dearborn St., which will be focused on providing brokerage, mortgage and title services primarily to the South Loop and its surrounding neighborhoods.

The new office builds upon the company’s exponential growth, marking its 28th location in the Chicago area and following two record-breaking years in revenues, including $7.2 billion in sales and 27,500 transactions in 2015.

Jim Psyhogios
“Baird & Warner has always been active in the South Loop, but with major developments like RiverLine and a massive 62-acre development bringing thousands of new residential units to the community, we’ll be well-positioned to leverage opportunities in this flourishing neighborhood,” said Laura Ellis, president of residential sales and the executive vice president of Baird & Warner.

“Our company has experienced record-breaking revenues for the past two years, and our expansion in the South Loop will build upon that success.”

The South Loop office is slated for occupancy at the end of the year. Like all of Baird & Warner’s offices, it will reflect the company’s one-to-one ratio, having a dedicated, noncompeting manager overseeing a single office.

Managing broker for the new location will be Jim Psyhogios, a real estate veteran and South Loop resident who has spent the last 20 of his 25 years in the industry providing brokerage services exclusively to the South Loop neighborhood. In fact, Psyhogios joined Baird & Warner earlier this year specifically to launch and manage the South Loop office.

“To have someone of Jim’s caliber leading our South Loop team speaks volumes about the success we envision for this new office,” said Ellis. “His knowledge and understanding of the neighborhood will be beneficial to everyone who walks in our door — whether they are a buyer, seller or an agent looking to join our family.”

“I’ve always been a champion of the South Loop as being one of most dynamic neighborhoods in Chicago, so I’m beyond excited to bring the best marketing and technology tools available to Baird & Warner’s broker associates, enabling them to make it easier for sellers and buyers to tap the neighborhood’s full potential,” said Psyhogios.
