Weekly wrap-up
Heron and Pagoda Towers
The Seattle Times reports that Heron/Pagoda Towers developer Multi Capital Group has lost part of the property through foreclosure.
A developer who had proposed a $900-million, twin-tower development across Fifth Avenue from the Westin Hotel in downtown Seattle has lost part of the property to foreclosure.
New York lender G4 Capital Partners took title to about half the site of the proposed Heron and Pagoda towers this week, according to county records. G4 had loaned an affiliate of New York developer Multi Capital Group $13.7 million to buy the property, but the affiliate defaulted.
Ashworth Cottages
A Pryde+Johnson development in the Green Lake neighborhood had sold only 2 of its 20 homes in the two years before the bank took over the development a few months ago. Since returning to market three weeks ago with steep discounts they’re now down to their last four units.
Even though they’re nearly closed out, Ashworth Cottage’s latest sales team is hosting its official Grand Opening on Saturday, November 14th with lattes from 11-1pm and hotdogs from 2-4pm. www.liveashworth.com
