Originally built in 1919 as the headquarters for the Virginia Electric and Power Company and subsequently renovated and repurposed in 2014, the historic Edison offers 174 contemporary apartment units located in downtown Richmond within blocks of the Virginia State Capitol, as well as the Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center and Medical College of Virginia Campus. Also included in the acquisition is a 365-space parking garage with 24/7 paid public access and dedicated parking for Edison residents. The high-rise apartment community is currently 97% leased.
“We are pleased to add another high-quality, urban, core, multifamily asset with onsite structured parking to our portfolio,” said Louis Haddad, President & CEO of Armada Hoffler Properties. “Consistent with prior transactions, the OP Units were issued at a significant premium to the current market price of our common stock, demonstrating our new partners’ confidence in the value proposition presented by our Company. With the Edison acquisition and the recently announced Solis Gainesville project, we will have added nearly 400 conventional apartment units owned or under development to the approximately 2,000 units in our portfolio and pipeline.”
