We’re happy to announce that CMB Group 88: Hillwood Detroit Fairgrounds just received its I-956F approval!
This project financed the construction of two logistics facilities on the site of the old Michigan State Fairgrounds in Detroit, MI. One facility (Parcel A) was constructed as a build-to-suit warehouse for Target.com, who is number 37 on the list of Fortune 500 companies. The second facility (Parcel B) is a speculative Class A warehouse, which is currently being marketed to multiple prospective tenants. Construction on both locations is nearing completion.
The Group 88 project underscores the transformative potential of EB-5 investments. By repurposing the old Michigan State Fairgrounds into modern logistics facilities, this initiative not only revitalizes a historically significant site, but also drives economic growth in the Detroit area. The creation of these state-of-the-art warehouses generates substantial employment opportunities and stimulates local business activities.
This marks the fifth CMB EB-5 partnership to achieve an I-956F approval under the EB-5 Reform and Integrity Act of 2022 (RIA). CMB has filed a total of 10 I-956F petitions since the RIA was passed, five of which have been adjudicated and approved by the USCIS. Previously approved partnerships were:
CMB Group 78 – Hillwood California BTS
CMB Group 81 – Inland Empire Industrial
CMB Group 81 – Inland Empire Industrial
CMB Group 83 – Hillwood SOMI Hayward
All five of these I-956F approved EB-5 partnerships were undertaken in partnership with Hillwood Development Group. After 41 EB-5 partnerships, CMB and Hillwood together represent the most successful lender-borrower relationship in the industry (32 partnerships with project approvals from the USCIS, 19 partnerships with I-829 approvals, and over $526 Million in loan repayment). CMB and Hillwood have been working together for over ten years, dating back to 2012.
The I-956F approval for Group 88 is a significant milestone, reflecting our dedication to fostering economic growth and creating job opportunities through the EB-5 program. This partnership exemplifies the strategic collaboration between CMB and Hillwood, emphasizing our shared commitment to excellence and successful project execution.
