JLL facilitates $61M refinancing of Energy Centre in New Orleans CBD

NEW YORK CITY, Feb. 24, 2026 – JLL Capital Markets announced today it arranged $61 million in permanent financing for Energy Centre, a 757,257-square-foot, Class A office tower located at 1100 Poydras St. in New Orleans' Central Business District. The 39-story property stands as the fourth tallest building in New Orleans and represents one of the city's most prestigious office addresses.

JLL worked on behalf of the borrower, Triangle Capital Group, to secure a fixed-rate, five-year loan.

"Energy Centre is a premier asset in the heart of New Orleans' central business district, and this refinancing reinforces our long-term conviction in the property,” said Adam Ashourzadeh, Triangle Capital Group. “We have strong momentum on the leasing and management front, and we look forward to building on that.”

Designed by HKS and fully renovated in 2009, Energy Centre offers tenants a significant competitive advantage with best-in-class amenities and a total of 982 covered parking spaces — 536 on-premises and 446 additional spaces in an adjacent annex garage at 600 Loyola Ave. The property’s 6.70-acre site provides a standout parking ratio in a market where such convenience is rare.

Energy Centre is currently 86.4 percent leased to a diverse set of tenants, led by major law and mediation firms, which make up 55 percent of occupancy. The tenant mix also includes finance, medical and other professional services, with a weighted average lease tenure of nearly 18 years.

Located within walking distance of the Caesars Superdome, Smoothie King Center and the French Quarter, Energy Centre puts tenants at the crossroads of business, culture and entertainment. Access to Interstate 10 and U.S. Highway 90 via Loyola Avenue, a nearby Amtrak station with airport shuttle service, and eight streetcar stops within a five-minute walk provide unmatched connectivity for employees and visitors.

The JLL Capital Markets team representing the borrower was led by Senior Managing Director Scott Aiese and Directors Alex Staikos and Clayton Ross.

"Energy Centre represents a trophy stabilized office tower that is widely considered a top office property in New Orleans," said Aiese. "The property's exceptional occupancy near 90 percent, combined with its unrivaled parking access and trophy location, positions it as a premier asset backed by best-in-class sponsorship."
