Miami-based Banyan Street Capital and a partner acquired a 38-story office building in downtown Tampa for $110 million.
A partnership between Banyan Street and Oaktree Capital got an $84 million loan from HSBC Bank to finance the acquisition of the 757,425-square-foot office building, called Tampa City Center.
A pedestrian bridge connects the office building to the 520-room Hilton Tampa Downtown. The office building also connects to a city-owned parking garage.
Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania-based Alliance Partners HSP sold the office building at 201 North Franklin Street in downtown Tampa for about $145 per square foot.
The building has a 95 percent occupancy rate, and its tenants include Ernst & Young, Deloitte, Morgan & Morgan, PNC Bank and FieldCore, a division of General Electric.
