Related Companies and Oxford Properties Group Close Related Companies and Oxford Properties Group close $1.3 billion in financing for 15 Hudson Yards November 25, 2015 - Financial Digest Manhattan, NY Related Companies and Oxford Properties Group have closed $1.3 billion in financing to fund 15 Hudson Yards, the first residential tower at the 28-acre mixed-use development on the West Side. Already under construction, the building contains both rental and condominium apartments. The 960,000 square foot building will be complete in 2018 and sales are expected to launch in mid-2016. Jeff Blau, CEO of Related Companies, said, “Hudson Yards is transforming the west side of Manhattan and this latest transaction represents a continued show of confidence from elite investors and lenders. We have already attracted business leaders in finance, fashion, beauty, consulting, law, tech and media to Hudson Yards; and in just a few short years we will welcome our first residents to the new neighborhood.” Blake Hutcheson, CEO of Oxford Properties Group, said, “Hudson Yards is far more than a collection of buildings and spaces. Since day one we envisioned a rich community where people can work, live and play. Today, we take another step towards this objective and we are honored that our financing partners share this vision. We look forward to welcoming those who will soon call Hudson Yards home.” Fifteen Hudson Yards will front on the newly created plaza at the center of Hudson Yards and is also adjacent to the High Line and directly connected to the Culture Shed – a multi-purpose venue offering seven levels of flexible gallery and performance space that will host a wide range of art, design and special events, including New York’s Fashion Week. Designed by Diller Scofidio + Renfro and Rockwell Group, the LEED Gold-designed tower will stand 910 ft. tall and offer 285 for-sale residences throughout its 70 stories, and 106 rental units. Notable for a unique tapered design that will transform the West Side skyline, 15 Hudson Yards will offer its residents unobstructed views of the city and Hudson River. Residents will also have access to an unparalleled suite of in-building amenities not available in other residential buildings in New York. Hudson Yards is the largest private real estate development in the nation’s history. The 28-acre site is being developed by Related Companies and Oxford Properties Group and will include 17 million square feet of commercial and residential space, more than 100 shops and restaurants, including New York City’s first Neiman Marcus, approximately 5,000 residences, a unique cultural space, 14-acres of public open space, a new 750-seat public school and a 200-room Equinox branded luxury hotel – all offering unparalleled amenities for residents, employees and guests. Hudson Yards will also serve as the corporate home to litigation powerhouse Boies, Schiller & Flexner; The Boston Consulting Group; Coach Inc., global investment firm KKR, L’Oréal USA, German software engineering firm SAP; Time Warner Inc., and VaynerMedia. When complete, more than 125,000 people will visit, work in, or call Hudson Yards their home. New York Real Estate Journal - 17 Accord Park Drive #207, Norwell MA 02061 - (781) 878-4540.

  • Fur District’
    Nypost.com March 14, 2018 Well-heeled New Yorkers are flocking to the ‘Fur District’ By Emily Nonko Impressions 23,917,718 Simon Fagg recently moved to amenity-laden rental Abington House. It's just one of the projects energizing 30th Street, once the domain of 9-to-5ers. Zandy Mangold n In the 1970s, Bennett Model commuted to work on 30th Street at his family’s company, a buying office that purchased luxury outerwear for stores around the I world. At the time, the area was known as the Fur District: Between 30th and 27th streets and Sixth and Eighth avenues, “there were over 350 fur-related companies” — and not much else, says Model, now 70. It was unfathomable that the neighborhood would attract more than a 9-to-5 crowd; the swath south of Penn Station and the Empire State Building was dominated by Nypost.com March 14, 2018 commercial businesses and had nothing in the way of nightlife. “It wasn’t a place where people lived,” Model says. Today, developers are building 346 condo and rental units along 30th Street, from the Hudson to the East River, according to Halstead Property Development Marketing. New residents bullish on the area include Simon Fagg, a 42-year-old Brit who moved to a studio at 500 W. 30th St.’s Abington House in 2015. The shift was, of course, gradual. In the 1990s, Model witnessed fur companies getting priced out or taking business elsewhere, and warehouses were converted to loft apartments. These days, he observes, practically everything — the under-construction towers, the Kimpton Hotel Eventi (renovated in 2015), Nordstrom Rack (opened in fall 2017) and hip Till & Sprocket restaurant (a 2016 debut) — is different.

  • Hudson Yards Takes Shape: New York's Newest
    BUSINESS | 12.15.2014 @4:16PM Hudson Yards Takes Shape: New York’s Newest Neighborhood Is Moving Full-Speed Ahead by Alicia Adamczyk Hudson Yards is transforming into one of the premiere destinations in New York City – and just might reinvigorate the city’s brick and mortar retail ecosystem in the process. The $20 billion, 28-acre development will bring more than 100 shops, fi ve state-of-the-art offi ce towers and an estimated 65,000 visitors a day to Manhattan’s West Side on some of the last undeveloped land on the island. All of this is expected to drive an estimated $3 billion in sales per year (and that’s before taking into account what will trickle down to businesses in Chelsea, SoHo and the surrounding areas). “We’re delivering a project here that’s going to enhance what’s already here,” says Kenneth Himmel, the president and Chief Executive Offi cer of Related Urban, the site’s developer. “It’s a complimentary statement.” Himmel says the space will have something for everyone: Exception- al cuisine and shopping will abut 14 acres of open public space and a Culture Shed that will accommodate large-scale cultural programming year-round, including Fashion Week, awards shows, art exhibitions and more. All of this is part of Phase I of the project, slated to be completed incrementally over the next fi ve years. “We’re really going to become a destination,” Himmel says. “The magic of what’s happening here is it’s got the best of all of the qualities that make a great downtown or a great destination project work … it takes the Hudson Yards from the northwest right retailers, the right restaurants, every part of this needs to come together the right way.” Himmel ensures the “hand-crafted” nature of everything — from the dining stalls in the Kitchens to the last retailer in the Shops – will lend an aura of exclusivity and sophistication to the project.

  • The Political Economy of Value Capture: How the Financialization of Hudson Yards Created a Private Rail Line for the Rich
    The Political Economy of Value Capture: How the Financialization of Hudson Yards Created a Private Rail Line for the Rich Danielle L. Petretta Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee Of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2020 © 2020 Danielle L. Petretta All Rights Reserved The Political Economy of Value Capture: How the Financialization of Hudson Yards Created a Private Rail Line for the Rich Abstract: The theory of value capture is simple to understand and easy to sell, promising self-fulfilling virtuous cycles of value generation, capture, and redistribution. Countless studies document value creation attributable to public interventions, providing guidance on the type and extent of potential benefits. Scholars too have set forth parameters for optimal value capture conditions and caution against common pitfalls to keep in mind when designing value capture plans. But even when utilizing the best advice, equitable redistribution of benefits rarely occurs in neoliberal economies, leaving municipalities struggling to meet the myriad of social needs and provide basic services for all their inhabitants. Invariably, capitalistic real estate states seek to financialize public assets for private gain. Nowhere is this more apparent in New York City today than in the outcomes thus far of one of the largest public-private developments in New York history at Hudson Yards. This dissertation documents the failure of the value capture scheme put in place at Hudson Yards which neither captured fair market value for the public, nor extracted much public benefit. The scheme aimed to leverage vast tracts of publicly-owned land above operational rail yards at the Far West Side of Manhattan.

  • I Toured the First Residential Building to Open in Hudson Yards
    I toured the fi rst residential building to open in Hudson Yards, NYC's new $25 billion neighborhood — and it was clear it's selling much more than just real estate February 25, 2019 | By Katie Warren On a recent winter afternoon, I visited 15 Hudson Yards, an 88-story superluxury tower in New York City. It's the fi rst residential building to open in Hudson Yards, a new neighborhood on Manhattan's West Side. At $25 billion, Hudson Yards is the most expensive real-estate development in US history. On my tour of 15 Hudson Yards, which was designed by Diller Scofi dio + Renfro and Rockwell Group, I got a sneak peek of a model unit and the building's 40,000 square feet for amenities on the 50th and 51st fl oors, including club rooms, a private screening room, a fi tness center, a 75-foot pool, a yoga studio and private spa, and wine cellars available to buy for $25,000 to $200,000. Hudson Yards as a whole doesn't offi cially open until March 15, but 15 Hudson Yards is already more than 60% sold, with contracts totaling more than $800 million, a publicist told Business Insider. Remaining condos start at $3.9 million for a two-bedroom and go up to $32 million for a duplex penthouse, 88B. I was blown away by the amenities and the ultraluxurious lifestyle that 15 Hudson Yards selling to residents. Here's what it looked like. The site's fi rst open residential building, 15 Hudson Yards, known for its 40,000 square feet worth of lavish amenities, welcomed its fi rst residents in February.
