DALLAS – JLL Capital Markets announced today that it has arranged acquisition financing for Jemison Flats, a historic, seven-story, 59-unit apartment building in downtown Birmingham, Alabama.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Highland Real Estate Capital, to secure the three-year, floating-rate loan through Bridge Investment Group.

Jemison Flats is located at 1827 1st Avenue in Birmingham’s Theater District. The property is also two blocks from Railroad Park, Regions Ball Park and the freshly renovated Powell Avenue Steam Plant. Originally completed in 1928, the recently renovated building includes a mix of studio and loft-style apartments that offer dramatic views of downtown and South Side. Units feature original hardwood floors, exposed beam ceilings, stainless steel appliances, concrete countertops and in-unit washers and dryers. Common area amenities include a fitness center, gated private park with grilling area and parking deck.
