The joint venture intends to convert the building — which was formerly used by American Tobacco Co. to manufacture Roi-Tan Cigars — to a mixed-use property containing work/office space, restaurants, retail and parking.

The total redevelopment cost will exceed $55 million.

Both FCP and Roi-Tan will contribute equity to the transaction, and FCP will provide mezzanine debt financing.
