The Real Deal’s best of 2009

December 31st, 2009    Posted in Real Estate News
 

The year 2009 was a trying time to be a real estate broker, developer or investor, but it never lacked for news. In the aftermath of the financial crisis, the industry watched in awe — and sometimes horror — as residential sales ground to a virtual halt, condo projects stopped in their tracks, office rents shrank and retail stores disappeared. Buyers at buildings like 22 Renwick sued to get out of their contracts, and some were granted the opportunity to back out of their contracts. Meanwhile, an amazing cast of characters — from Kent Swig to Harry Macklowe to Lev Leviev — publicly fought for survival. There were also glimmers of hope, from the opening of the High Line in June to the expansion of Halstead Property into Connecticut to the sale of Former Lehman Brothers CEO Dick Fuld’s sale 16-room co-op apartment at 640 Park Avenue for $25.87 million, almost $5 million more than he bought it for two years ago. Click here to see The Real Deal staff’s picks for the stories that most altered the New York City real estate landscape in 2009, in alphabetical order.

Jamaica Bay land designated for park usage

December 31st, 2009    Posted in Real Estate News
 

A 1.2-acrea swatch of land in Jamaica Bay is set to become a waterfront park, after initial plans to transform it into a space for private developments was scrapped. Trust for Public Land, a non-profit conservation group, purchased the land from Hudson Companies, which had planned to build 20 homes on the site. The group purchased the land for $1.925 million, with additional funds provided by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, before immediately donating it to the city for public use. Alan Ball, one of the owners of Hudson Companies, said that his group was happy with the outcome of the deal. “We had no debt on the property, and we could have held on to it pretty easily, so we said we might as well cut bait and move on,” Ball said. “Moving this project to the Trust for Public Land was a very good thing to do.”

Moinian Group sues to block Dwell95 auction

December 31st, 2009    Posted in Real Estate News
 

Joseph Moinian and Dwell95

Developer Joe Moinian filed a lawsuit on Monday to block the scheduled auction of Dwell95, his luxury rental building at 95 Wall Street, however a last minute bankruptcy filing by the mezzanine lender has postponed the proceeding. Monian’s Moinian Group, one of the city’s biggest real estate development companies, filed suit in New York State Supreme Court against Rubicon Finance America, which held a $42 million mezzanine loan on the 507-unit property in the Financial District. Moinian had a $227 million construction loan on the building from Credit Suisse-unit Column Financial, but the value of the property fell below the loan balance due to the 2008 economic downturn, which put the mezzanine loan into default, according to the complaint. Moinian alleges he reached an agreement with Rubicon and Credit Suisse to buy the $42 million mezzanine loan for $1 million, but he says on Dec. 10 that Rubicon agreed to sell $1.4 billion in loans, including the Dwell95 loan , to a joint venture firm that included FBE Limited and Lane Capital Management. Right after the sale, Moinian alleges that FBE and Lane Capital scheduled a Dec. 30 auction to foreclose on 95 Wall Street and basically deprive him of the chance to buy back the defaulted mezzanine loan.
