A minority interest in GID Development Group's new Cirrus apartment tower, at 2030 Eighth Ave. in the Denny Triangle, has sold for $103 million, according to King County records.
The seller was Black Emerald B 2013 Inc., a foreign corporation associated with Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.
The buyer was Windsor Cirrus LLC. That foreign LLC is associated with Boston-based GID and The Benson Associates, which could not be traced. Windsor Cirrus acquired a 35.65 percent interest in the property. The majority 61.35 percent interest is still owned by another GID-related entity, Windsor Advisers 2030 Eighth Avenue LLC.
Brokers, if any, were not announced.
Designed by Weber Thompson and built by Sellen, the 41-story, 355-unit Cirrus opened in 2015, and is managed by Windsor Communities.
The LEED silver-certified building has 244 parking stalls on seven underground levels, and about 3,800 square feet of retail.
In 2016, it was named high-rise residential project of the year by NAIOP.
Public records indicate a $140 million loan modification with Massachusetts Mutual, which helped finance the project.
GID acquired the site in 2013 for $13.4 million through an LLC. It is on the corner of Lenora Street, near Amazon's rapidly expanding Denny Triangle campus.
GID recently completed the 41-story, 396-unit Stratus, at 2101 Ninth Ave., just around the corner. Windsor Communities also manages Stratus, and other local apartments including The Whittaker in West Seattle. The Whittater was a joint venture of GID and Lennar Multifamily Communities. Windsor shares an address with GID.
Privately held GID is a global developer, owner and property manager that was founded in 1960. The company website says it has a portfolio of existing and under-development properties worth over $13 billion. The multifamily portfolio includes 81 properties with 22,682 residential units.
