NEW YORK LIGHTHOUSE POINT MIX USE DEVELOPMENT
Lighthouse Point is a
multi-phase mixed use development located in New York City directly
adjacent to the Staten Island Ferry Terminal in Staten Island. The first
phase, includes office, retail, residential and parking. The second
phase includes retail and a new full-service hotel. The project occupies
portions of the historic US Lighthouse Depot site and provides
unobstructed views to downtown Manhattan and New York Harbor.
The
EB-5 raise is a total of $20 million (40 units were offered. 2 units remained).
Lighthouse
Point is the perfect EB-5 offering for investors - it checks all the
boxes for a safe and secure investment, including:
- First Position Mortgage: This is a senior loan. The EB-5 investors have first priority for repayment of their investment. There is no bank debt ahead of the EB-5 loan.
- Low Leverage: The
EB-5 Loan accounts for only 30% of the capital stack of the project and
is the only permanent debt on the project. This provides a huge safety
net in case of an economic downturn and makes the Exit (return of
capital) very easy to complete through a refinance.
- Fully Financed Project: The project is fully financed and already under construction.
- Significant Public Investment: The
City and State of New York have invested $22.7M in this project to
assist in the redevelopment of the Staten Island waterfront. In
addition, over $9M in tax credit financing has also been provided to the
project.
- Blue Chip Financial Partners: In
addition to government investment, the project also includes
investments by well respected financial institutions, including Goldman
Sachs, Lubert Adler, and Citizens Bank, as well as a direct equity
investment from the Developer (Triangle Equities) of more than $9M.
- Project Under Construction: Construction on the project began in December 2015, and is due to be completed on schedule in Summer 2018.
- Office Tenants Secured: 100% of the office space has already been leased; 55% of retail spaces are currently leased and others under negotiation.
- Escrow to I-924 Approval: Project Exemplar is approved.
- Job Coverage: With 1,282 jobs, there are 32 jobs per investor.
- Single-Tract TEA: The project site is located within a single census tract that qualifies for the minimum investment amount.
