JLL brokered the 520 Park financing deal, sources told The Real Deal.

Zeckendorf announced last month it would ask $130 million for the 12,394-square-foot penthouse triplex at its 520 Park development, the priciest current listing for a condominium unit in New York City, as previously reported. The New York State attorney general has approved the offering plan for the 31 units. [NYO]Mark Maurer
