Tishman Refinances French Office Tower for $571M<\/strong><\/p>\n

Tishman Speyer has completed a $571 refinancing on its Lumi\u00e8re Building, a 1.5 million-square-foot tower located in Paris. The loan came courtesy of a transaction headed by French insurer BNP Paribas. Tishman Speyer has called the 20-year-old building its own since 2006, when the company\u2019s European Strategic Office fund acquired it from Blackstone for the equivalent of $834 million. In addition to Class A office space, the seven-story asset has roughly 100,000 square feet of retail space and 220,000 square feet of warehousing.<\/p>\n

The BNP-led consortium of fellow French insurers Cardif, CNP and Predic were able to achieve a groundbreaking transaction. The financing deal is the first in Europe to be structured through a mortgage bond private placement secured by a first-ranking mortgage on the property. It also marks the largest real estate financing deal in France for a single asset since the glory days of 2007.<\/p>\n
