Priced at a spread of 181 basis points above the U.S. Treasury Index, the five-year fixed rate now stands at 5.81%. The move will aid the balance sheet strength required for future growth endeavors.
Led by Wells Fargo and with participation by a consortium of world-class institutions, the likes of Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, Bank of America, Deutsche Bank and Crédit Agricole,the new financing is anticipated to close in the first quarter of 2026. It serves as a replacement for the property’s previous construction facility of $1.25 billion with an outstanding balance of $1.171 billion.
One Madison Avenue is 100% leased, with global technology, AI and financial services firms as its tenants. The property offers amenities like state-of-the-art HVAC, circulating 100% fresh air, an event space and rooftop garden, culinary offering and a tenant-only lounge. It also features a 56,000-square-foot Chelsea Piers Fitness with a collection of casual eateries.
