Progress Capital arranges $53 Million in refinancing for newest luxury gated complex in NJ


EAST ORANGE, NJ — Brad Domenico of Progress Capital secured $53 million in refinancing for Airaj and Ibrahim Hasan, of Blackstone 360, owner/developer of LOTUS 315 – an 8-story, Class-A luxury mixed-use building located at 315 South Harrison St.

Arbor Commercial Mortgage provided 3-years interest only financing on a non-recourse basis.

The property was built in 2019 by Newark-based real estate development firm Blackstone 360 (B360), who owns and operates the gated complex. LOTUS 315 features a sleek, ship-like structured building with 180 residential units coupled with 33,151 s/f of ground-floor commercial space. Its apartment interiors are outfitted with strand-woven bamboo floors, stainless steel appliances, Italian-style kitchens and an in-unit washer/dryer. Additional luxury essentials include gated entry, underground parking, 24-hour doorman and gorgeous outdoor garden with party lounge, private garden terraces and a state-of-the-art gym. The residence also provides shuttle service to Newark Penn Station, giving commuter tenants a hassle-free transportation option to the NJ Transit line with service to NYC.

LOTUS 315 is situated along the bustling corridor of South Harrison St. at the cross-section of East Orange and South Orange, for easy access to Seton Hall University and the East Orange VA Hospital. Major highways including I-280 and Garden State Parkway are also within close proximity.

B360’s business model is built on locating prime real estate within overlooked, urban markets and transforming these areas into high-end multi-family rentals. The firm’s heritage as a general contracting firm allows them to utilize a vertically integrated, 360-degree model of development, design and construction in-house, with the capacity to deliver tremendous stabilized value compared to cost.
