HFF arranged a $28.7 million acquisition loan, on behalf of GPI Co., for a 244,000-square-foot retail structure anchored by Macy’s, and a 1,550-space parking garage at the Westside Pavilion Mall in West Los Angeles.

Senior Managing Director Kevin MacKenzie, directors Greg Brown and Jeff Sause, and Associate Jamie Kline of HFF represented the borrower in securing the two-year, fixed-rate loan through a life insurance company.

Located on a six-acre site at 10730 W. Pico Blvd. at the intersection of Pico Boulevard and Overland Avenue, in close proximity to interstates 10 and 405, the asset is part of the Westside Pavilion Mall. The three-story urban-style shopping center opened in 1985 and is currently owned and operated by The Macerich Co., encompassing roughly 755,000 square feet and accommodating approximately 150 shops.
