DALLAS, April 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Lone Star PACE<\/a>, a leading administrator of the Texas C-PACE program, has been honored with the Most Creative Financing award at the Dallas Business Journal<\/em>\u2019s 2025 Best Real Estate Deals Awards. The recognition highlights the firm\u2019s role in administering a $27 million Commercial Property Assessed Clean Energy (C-PACE) assessment for HALL Arts Hotel<\/a> in the Dallas Arts District \u2014 a transaction that recapitalized energy-efficiency upgrades at the luxury property.<\/p>\n

The award was presented during the DBJ\u2019s annual ceremony on April 17, which celebrates the most impactful and innovative commercial real estate deals in North Texas. Of 130 submissions, only 65 were selected as finalists, and just 22 received top honors.<\/p>\n

Lee McCormick, President of Lone Star PACE, said: \u201cThis award reflects the power of creative financing to elevate commercial real estate projects in ways that align with sustainability, economics and long-term value. We\u2019re honored to work alongside visionary partners like HALL Group and Nuveen Green Capital to bring these transformative deals to life.\u201d<\/p>\n

This recognition highlights C-PACE\u2019s growing mainstream adoption and unique ability to deliver value at every stage of development: pre-, mid- and post-construction.\u201d<\/p>\n

The assessment allowed HALL Group to recapitalize the cost of previously installed energy-efficient improvements, providing an alternative source of capital and increased flexibility for future projects.<\/p>\n
