Progress Capital Arranges $28 Million Loan for Apartment Building in Montclair

Brad Domenico, partner at Progress Capital secured $28,350,000 in acquisition financing on behalf of Marc Watkins of Rockledge Ventures to purchase Hawthorne Towers, a collection of 133 apartment units located at 36 Hawthorne Place, Montclair, NJ.  Brad negotiated with Peapack-Gladstone, who provided debt financing with 3-years I/O.

Constructed in 1962, Hawthorne Towers is a mid-rise multifamily building featuring a mix of spacious studios and 1 to 2-bedroom apartments spanning throughout 7 levels. Residences are provided with unique community amenities including a pool and plentiful parking, which is unusual in this trendy, high-population-density town.  In addition to the property’s long list of amenities, the 3.41-acre lot features a professional designed lobby, outdoor grill and picnic area, a resident mailroom, on premises laundry center, and a state-of-the-art fitness center.

Hawthorne Towers is located in Montclair, an upscale town in Essex County, New Jersey. The iconic landmark is nestled along a quiet tree-lined residential neighborhood just off Elm Street, less than a three-minute walk to the Bloomfield Avenue Business District and one mile to Bay Street Rail Station. In addition to its extensive rail network, Montclair has nine bus routes and highway connectivity to the Garden State Parkway, Interstate 280, Route 46, Route 3 and Route 506/Bloomfield Avenue.
