$50M financing arranged for luxury multi-housing development near Denver

DENVER, July 14, 2021 – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has arranged a $50 million construction loan for the development of Polaris Wadsworth Station Apartments, a 276-unit, to-be-built, luxury, garden-style multi-housing community in the Denver-area community of Broomfield, Colorado.

JLL represented the developer, Mountain View Capital, in arranging a five-year, floating-rate loan with a national bank. 

With an anticipated completion date of January 2023, Polaris Wadsworth Station Apartments will comprise one-, two- and three-bedroom units averaging 869 square feet. Apartments will have in-unit washer and dryer, walk-in closets, smart unit package and balconies/patios. Community amenities will feature expansive courtyards, fitness facility, property-wide WiFi and other first-class amenities.

Situated adjacent to Denver Boulder Turnpike on the southeast corner of Wadsworth Boulevard and West 116th Avenue, Polaris Wadsworth Station Apartments is optimally located in the desirable city and county of Broomfield. The property’s location provides easy access to not only employment but also one of Metro Denver’s most prominent retail corridors. Residents of Polaris Wadsworth Station are minutes from seven million square feet of retail space located directly along the corridor, including Flatiron Crossing Mall, the Shops at Walnut Creek and multiple other major retail centers. The community’s location also provides a multitude of nearby dining and entertainment options at a variety of local shopping centers, including Westminster Promenade, Villager Square, Sheridan Crossing II and Broomfield Corners. In total, there is over 4.8 million square feet of retail within a three-mile radius of Polaris Wadsworth Station, providing residents with an abundance of shopping and dining options.

The JLL Capital Markets debt team that represented the developer was led by Senior Director Kristian Lichtenfels.

"It is always a pleasure to work with Kristian and his team at JLL,” said Jeff Sanders from Mountain View Capital. “They widely marketed the opportunity to construction lenders and negotiated excellent terms for Mountain View Capital's latest development. Polaris Wadsworth Station will be a great addition to our Front Range portfolio."
