Additional detail related to the deal:
The Huron Building in downtown Milwaukee signed Husch Blackwell for a 15-year 77,000 square foot office lease representing 47% of the rentable area. Given the size of the lease, the developer, J. Jeffers was able to obtain construction financing through Associated Bank based entirely off the anchor tenant. Jeffers then pitched the deal on the CrowdStreet.com online equity placement platform, and raised $22 million dollars from 400 individual investors, setting a national record and generating national attention to the Milwaukee office market. The Huron site was identified by the City of Milwaukee as a top ten “catalytic sites” referred to as the “Broadway Connection” in the City’s Downtown Plan. The City sought to approve a site that would overcome the divide of the I-794 highway and connect the Third Ward and Downtown Office Market. The new building will generate over $50 million in tax increment, and was financed without tax incremental financing. The City, in turn, committed to funding a $3.8M dollar streetscaping project under the I-794 highway along Broadway and Clyborn Street.
