Market Chatter: Blackstone Mortgage Trust's Loan on Chicago Office Tower Defaults

MT Newswires Live06-25

A Blackstone Mortgage Trust (BXMT)-originated loan on a 40-story Chicago office tower defaulted after the debt reached its maturity deadline on June 9, Bloomberg reported Wednesday, citing a mortgage filing.

New York-based real estate firm 601W defaulted on the $343 million loan on June 9, the filing showed, according to the report.

The loan, originated by Blackstone Mortgage Trust in 2018, with roughly $159 million parceled into a commercial mortgage-backed security, represents less than 2% of its portfolio, a spokesperson for Blackstone Mortgage Trust told Bloomberg.

601W did not immediately respond to a request for comment from MT Newswires.
