On October 27, 2014, we completed a $140,000,000 financing of 655 Fifth Avenue, a 57,500 square foot retail and office property. The loan is interest only at LIBOR plus 1.40% and matures in October 2019 with two one-year extension options.

 

On October 31, 2014, we entered into an agreement to sell 1740 Broadway, a 601,000 square foot office building in Manhattan for approximately $605,000,000. The sale will result in net proceeds of approximately $585,000,000, after closing costs, and result in a financial statement gain of approximately $443,000,000. The tax gain will be approximately $483,000,000, which will be deferred in like-kind exchanges, primarily for the St. Regis Fifth Avenue retail (see Note 4 – Acquisitions). The sale is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of 2014.
