Northwind Group Provides $11 Million First-Mortgage Loan for the Acquisition of 10 West 17th Street, a Land Site to be Developed Into a 23-Unit Luxury Residential Condominium Project
NEW YORK, July 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Northwind Group, a Manhattan-based real estate private equity firm and debt fund manager, has announced the origination of a $11 million senior first-mortgage loan for the acquisition of 10 West 17th Street, a fully entitled vacant land planned for the development of an 18-story, 23-unit luxury residential condominium project in Manhattan's Flatiron submarket.
The loan was originated by Northwind Debt Fund III, the firm's latest flagship closed-end fund focused on real estate credit investments across major U.S. gateway markets. Following a record year in 2024 with over $1.1 billion in originations, Northwind continues to actively originate and close new loans across its target markets.
Prosper Property Group, a vertically integrated real estate firm with a track record in New York City residential projects, will lead the development of the property located on 17th Street between Fifth and Sixth Avenues. Once complete, the project will rise 18 stories and feature 23 boutique luxury residences ranging from two to four bedrooms with thoughtfully designed amenities.
Ran Eliasaf, Founder and Managing Partner of Northwind Group, commented, "We are pleased to provide financing at a favorable basis in one of Manhattan's most sought-after neighborhoods. The Flatiron District continues to exhibit strong demand for boutique luxury residential offerings, and we have seen similar projects in this submarket achieve strong absorption. We look forward to working with Prosper Property Group on this development and building a long-term relationship, as part of our broader commitment to supporting New York City's residential market and helping to deliver much-needed new housing."
Eddie Bender, Principal of Prosper Property Group, said, "We were impressed with Northwind's experience and expertise making the loan closing a seamless transaction, and we're excited to build upon our strong relationship and move forward to bring new high-quality residences to the Flatiron neighborhood."
The financing was arranged by Andrew Iadeluca of New Development Capital.
