For Immediate Release Canyon Partners Real Estate Makes $102.3 Million Investment in Miami Luxury Multifamily Property with ECI Group Los Angeles – January 3, 2018 – Canyon Partners Real Estate LLC® (“Canyon”) has provided a $102.3 million senior bridge loan to Upper East Side Miami, LLC, an affiliate of ECI Group, for the recapitalization of the Shorecrest Club, a luxury 467-unit, high-rise, Class A multifamily property in Miami, Florida. Canyon has a long track record of deploying debt and equity capital in Miami-Dade. Since 2010 alone, Canyon has invested over $800 million of capital in assets valued at approximately $2 billion. Past and current Miami-Dade investments include the SLS Brickell Hotel & Residences, Turnberry Isle Resort & Club, 600 Brickell (Brickell World Plaza), Intracoastal Mall, Causeway Square, Downtown Dadeland, Design 41, Fountainebleau Park Plaza, BrickellHouse, Echo Brickell, and Muse Residences. Shorecrest Club is the fourth transaction between Canyon and ECI Group. “Over the past five years, we have worked with Canyon to develop several successful multifamily projects in the Southeast,” said Seth Greenberg of ECI Group. “They are a creative and reliable capital source and we are pleased to expand our lending relationship with Canyon on one of the key assets in our portfolio.” Located directly on the Biscayne Bay at the 79th Street Causeway, Shorecrest Club is one of Miami’s few new luxury rental properties with 290 linear feet of waterfrontage. As the only high-rise structure in the surrounding area, the property’s two 20-story towers offer residents expansive, unobstructed and unmatched views of Biscayne Bay, North Bay Village, Miami Beach, North Miami, Downtown/Brickell, and the Atlantic Ocean. Given its central, transit-oriented location – the property is eight miles north of the Downtown/Brickell employment center, three miles north of Midtown and the Design District, four miles west of Miami Beach and its hospitality industry, and two miles east of I-95 – residents have convenient access to employment, restaurants, and retailers throughout the metro area. In addition, Shorecrest Club is just 10 miles from Miami International Airport. The property offers a mix of one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments with high-end finishes, including granite countertops, in-unit washers and dryers, and an enclosed parking garage with 720 spaces. Luxury amenities include a resort-style pool with lap lanes, outdoor cabanas, a fitness center with saunas, tenant lounges with free Wi-Fi, storage units, valet parking, and a movie theater. ECI Group plans to further enhance the Shorecrest Club with 12 boat slips planned for the Biscayne Bay waterfront, additional landscaping, and a ½ acre dog park planned for the south side of the 79th Street Causeway.
