Cambridge, MA CBRE has secured a $120.2 million loan for the owner of Zinc Apartments, a 392-unit multifamily property. The class A+ LEED Silver certified high-rise community is located at 22 Water St., adjacent to the new Lechmere Station, a light rail station run by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) slated to open in 2021.
