WESTERLY, R.I., April 27, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Washington Trust’s Commercial Real Estate Group recently provided $3 million to Woodrow Wilson Middletown, LLC, for the refinancing of Woodrow Wilson Apartments, a 4-story, 66-unit apartment building in Middletown, Connecticut.
Woodrow Wilson Apartments consists of a mix of studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. Originally constructed as a school in 1931, the building was converted to apartments in 1985 and has since undergone extensive renovations including new windows, kitchens and bathrooms throughout.
