Crestone Partners has secured a $66 million refinance for two interconnected Class A office buildings encompassing 279,188 square feet of space in Denver’s LoDo submarket.

JLL Capital Markets made arrangements on behalf of the borrower. Allianz Global Investors originated the fixed-rate, five-year loan, Denver County public records show.

The LEED Gold-certified property is currently 95 percent occupied by 13 tenants, including Heritage Title Company, UMB Bank, Gallagher Industries and others, CommercialEdge data shows. The property has outperformed its competitors in the LoDo area for average rents, occupancy and the quality of the tenant credit, noted Crestone Partners’ Principal Bob Flynn, in prepared remarks.

The loan, originated through HTLF, will be used for a 60,000-square-foot component of A Block, a Class A, $120 million mixed-use development comprising hotel, office and retail space.

In November 2022, Broe Real Estate Group announced plans to develop 250 Clayton, a mixed-use project in Denver’s Cherry Creek Hill district. With construction expected to start in late 2023, the project consists of 175,000 square feet of office and retail space.
