45 Park Place will ultimately stand 43 stories tall and 666-feet As of June 2’s groundbreaking ceremony, Sharif El-Gamal, founder and CEO of Soho Properties, has officially resumed construction at 45 Park Place. The site, for which he received pre-construction financing from Madison Realty Capital in 2014, has recently secured construction financing from a collection of banks in the Middle East, Asia, and Europe. To do so, El-Gamal followed a financing structure that adheres to Islamic legal principles, known as a murabaha, in which lender and borrower are on the same playing field. There is no interest necessary and debt cannot be sold; borrower and lender are true partners. The deal has become known as the largest construction financing of its kind ever in New York. El-Gamal secured no less than $219 million for the development.
