Opportunity
Nuveen Green Capital was proud to partner with Towerline Group and Silver Heights Capital to provide a combined $43 million construction loan to The Hakimian Organization for the new development. By deploying $12.34 million (28.7% LTC) in C-PACE financing to fund HVAC, lighting, electrical, plumbing, as well as the building envelope, the sponsor was able to lower their weighted average cost of capital for the project, while reducing execution risk.
