NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–

SL Green Realty Corp. (NYSE:SLG) and Vornado Realty Trust (NYSE:VNO)

today announced that they have closed on the refinancing of 280 Park

Avenue, a premier 1,250,000 square foot Manhattan office building that

is held by the companies in a joint venture.

The new $900 million loan carries a 3-year term (subject to four 1-year

extension options) and a floating interest rate of LIBOR plus 2.00%

(currently 2.44%). The loan replaces the previous $721 million

indebtedness that carried an interest rate of approximately 6.35%.

The refinancing comes on the heels of the completion of a

transformational $150 million redesign and renovation of the building’s

façade and interior. Included in the renovations were the creation of an

expansive world-class lobby, an extensive program to enhance

environmental sustainability, a complete redesign of the building’s

adjacent plaza and building-wide infrastructure upgrades, including new

elevator cabs and bathrooms, new thin line perimeter induction units,

new electrical distribution and state-of-the-art security.
