Debt and Preferred Equity
Previous report
In 2023 and 2024, in our debt and preferred equity portfolio we continued to focus on underwriting financings for owners, acquirers or developers of properties in New York City as well as expanding our special servicing business. At the same time, some investments were repaid, the proceeds of which were utilized for debt repayment, and we converted one investment into equity ownership. Our investment strategy provides us with the opportunity to fill a need for additional debt financing, while achieving attractive risk adjusted returns to us on the investments and receiving a significant amount of additional information on the New York City real estate market. During 2024, our debt and preferred equity portfolio decreased as a result of the repayment of an investment with a carrying value of $64.6 million, offset by $21.6 million of advances under future funding obligations, discount and fee amortization, and paid-in-kind interest, net of premium amortization. This does not include the origination of a $235.4 million preferred equity investment made by the Company and its joint venture partner, which is included in Investment in unconsolidated joint ventures in our consolidated balance sheet.

One Vanderbilt Avenue Investment
Previous report
In December 2016, we entered into agreements with entities owned and controlled by our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") and Interim President, Marc Holliday, and our former President, Andrew Mathias, pursuant to which they agreed to make an investment in our One Vanderbilt project (inclusive of the property and SUMMIT One Vanderbilt) at the appraised fair market value for the interests acquired. This investment entitles these entities to receive a percentage of any profits realized by the Company from its One Vanderbilt project in excess of the Company's capital contributions, of approximately 1.27% and 0.85%, respectively, on account of the property and 1.92% and 1.28%, respectively, on account of SUMMIT One Vanderbilt. The entities had no right to any return of capital. Accordingly, subject to previously disclosed repurchase rights, these interests had no value and these entities were not entitled to any amounts (other than limited distributions to cover tax liabilities incurred) unless and until the Company received distributions from the One Vanderbilt project in excess of the Company's aggregate investment in the project. The entities owned and controlled by Messrs. Holliday and Mathias paid $1.4 million and $1.0 million, respectively, which equaled the fair market value of the interests acquired as of the date the investment agreements were entered into as determined by an independent third-party appraisal that we obtained.
Previous report
Messrs. Holliday and Mathias have the right to tender their interests in the project upon stabilization (50% within three years after stabilization and 100% three years or more after stabilization). In addition, the agreement calls for us to repurchase these interests in the event of a sale of One Vanderbilt or a transactional change of control of the Company. We also have the right to repurchase these interests on the seven-year anniversary of the stabilization of the project or upon the occurrence of certain separation events prior to the stabilization of the project relating to each of Messrs. Holliday's and Mathias's continued service with us. The price paid upon a tender of the interests will equal the liquidation value of the interests at the time, with the value based on the project's sale price, if applicable, or fair market value as determined by an independent third party appraiser. In 2022, stabilization of the property (excluding SUMMIT One Vanderbilt) was achieved. Therefore, Messrs. Holiday and Mathias exercised their rights to tender 50% of their interests in the property (excluding SUMMIT One Vanderbilt) in July 2022. In 2023, stabilization of SUMMIT One Vanderbilt was achieved.
Previous report
As of December 31, 2024, Messrs. Holiday's and Mathias's remaining interests in the One Vanderbilt project are included in Preferred units and redeemable equity in the mezzanine equity section of the Company's consolidated financial statements.

We incur a variety of costs in the development and leasing of our properties. After the determination is made to capitalize a cost, it is allocated to the specific component of a project that is benefited. Determination of when a development project is substantially complete and capitalization must cease involves a degree of judgment. The costs of land and building under development include specifically identifiable costs. The capitalized costs include, but are not limited to, pre-construction costs essential to the development of the property, development costs, construction costs, interest costs, real estate taxes, salaries and related costs and other costs incurred during the period of development. We consider a construction project as substantially completed and held available for occupancy upon the completion of tenant improvements, but no later than one year after major construction activity ceases. We cease capitalization on the portions substantially completed and occupied or held available for occupancy and capitalize only those costs associated with the portions under construction.
