Mortgage for former Goldman Sachs HQ a 'loan of concern'

The $360 million mortgage for Goldman Sachs’ former headquarters at 85 Broad St. is a “loan of concern,” Fitch Ratings said.Goldman developed the 1.1 million-square-foot building in 1983 to house its entire workforce of 1,500 before moving out in 2010 for new headquarters on West Street. Only two years after development, the firm sold the tower for $310 million to MetLife, which in 2014 sold a piece to Beacon Capital Partners and the co-owners upgraded the 30-story building described as an “ungainly bulk” by the "AIA Guide to New York City."The owners spent $36 million on renovations, which paid off when WeWork agreed in 2015 to lease 300,000 square feet, or approximately eight floors, through 2033. The up-and-coming office coworking firm paid $46 a square foot, which was 17% below market rate. Others moved in, including Nielsen Holdings and Vox Media, owner of New York magazine and The Verge. In 2017, 85 Broad was acquired for $650 million by Ivanhoé Cambridge, a subsidiary of Canadian pension fund Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec.85 Broad was 20% vacant at the end of last year, better than some Financial District buildings but a big change from its prepandemic 6%. Fitch said in a report last month that mortgage investors face a 12% loss, or $43 million over the entire loan. “The loan was flagged as a loan concern due to exposure to WeWork,” Fitch said.Around the time WeWork emerged from bankruptcy this spring it had moved out of 120,000 square feet, or three...
