Lionstone Deal in Midtown Atlanta

ATLANTA – Lionstone Investments  recently provided mezzanine capital to the owner of 8West, a newly built office property developed by The Atlantic Companies. The transaction is the first of its type for the fund.

Located at 889 Howell Mill Road in west midtown Atlanta, adjacent to Georgia Tech, the property has 193,359 SF of office space with ground-floor retail. The building features a distinctive eight-story-tall mural and views of the city skyline from two private balconies and a rooftop deck.

The gap financing will be used by the current owner to refinance an existing construction loan as well as to complete leasing and common area amenities, including conference facilities and a fitness center. Constructed in 2020, the building is currently 33 percent leased to a variety of tenants including Ford Motor Company’s research and innovation hub.

“In an environment where refinancing by traditional lenders is extremely difficult, Lionstone is pleased to have the opportunity to provide gap financing on new, high-quality assets within a high conviction market and submarket,” said Andy Lusk, chief investment officer and head of corporate strategy for Lionstone. “We believe investing in the debt versus equity provides less risk for our investors at this time.”
