HFF Secures $190 Million Financing for Fountain Place in Dallas

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Holliday Fenoglio Fowler, L.P. (HFF) announced today that it has secured $190 million in financing for Fountain Place, a 1.2-million-square-foot, Class A office tower in Dallas, Texas.

HFF worked on behalf of the borrower, Goddard Investment Group, to secure the financing through AIG Investments. The $190 million loan was broken into two components, a $100 million, initial seven-year, fixed-rate loan and a $90 million floating-rate loan. Proceeds are being used to take out the existing financing and fund tenant improvements/leasing commissions plus capital expenditures for the construction of a new parking garage and interior renovations. HFF was also involved in the sale of the property to Goddard in 2014.

Fountain Place is located at 1445 Ross Avenue in the Dallas Arts District close to Klyde Warren Park. The 58-story tower was designed by architect I.M. Pei and features a water garden by renowned landscape architect Dan Kiley called “The Fountain Plaza” at its base. It is one of only three LEED Gold Certified Class A buildings in downtown Dallas and also includes an adjacent 1.5-acre development site that can be developed into above grade parking. Fountain Place is 86 percent leased to tenants including Tenet Healthcare, Hunton & Williams and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.
