ISSUE HIGHLIGHTS Volume 30, Issue 3 February 9 - 22, 2018 LIRO DESIGNS HQ FOR THE LIRO GROUP
ORFOLK, VA — Wheeler Real Es- tate Investment Trust, Inc. , a self-managed commercial real estate in- vestment company with a primary focus on grocery- anchored centers, announced that WHLR-JANAF, LLC , a wholly-owned subsidiary, has purchased JANAF Shopping Yard, an 887,917 s/f shopping destination in Norfolk for $85.65 million. JANAF is the largest open- air shopping center in the region, and this transaction is the largest non-mall retail sale in the past five years, ac- cording to broker Ryan Sci- ullo with CBRE who along with Bill Kent handled the sale. JANAF Shopping Yard was one of the first large sub- urban shopping centers in the United States when it opened to the public in 1959. The property’s original investment group was composed of retired and active-duty military per- sonnel who aptly named the N
ton Roads. It is located at the intersection of Military Highway and Virginia Beach Blvd., which is one of the most traveled intersections with high traffic counts, and it is easily accessible to both In- terstates 64 and 264. JANAF draws customers from a 25- mile radius. “The area surrounding JANAF Shopping Yard is going through an economic boomwith the recent opening of the Norfolk PremiumOut- lets and with IKEA’s second store in Virginia, making this area the premier retail destination in the region capable of drawing shoppers from a 75-mile radius,” said Chuck Rigney , director of Economic Development. “In addition, transportation in- frastructure improvements on Military Highway as well as on I-264 are underway, accommodating our region’s resident and tourists with more modern accessibility and direct access.” n

We appreciate that Wheeler is increasing its corporate portfolio to include one of Norfolk’s commercial destinations. And, we are proud to have local ownership
of this valuable asset.” Jon Wheeler , chairman and chief executive officer of Wheeler, stated, “JANAF is an iconic property located nine miles from our corpo- rate headquarters. This asset aligns perfectly with our busi- ness strategy of owning the dominant center in secondary and tertiary markets. We ex- pect JANAF to be a long-term play for WHLR as we believe there is tremendous value in the underlying real estate. ” The location of JANAF Shopping Yardmakes it one of the most desirable in Hamp-

Companies Should Exercise Due Diligence Prior To Hiring Third- Party Drone Services T Mark Dombroff hird-party drone com- panies are helping U.S. businesses with film- ing, testing, spraying and much more. But before hiring someone to fly a drone on your behalf, it is wise to carefully consider the regulatory and risk-management questions that can arise as a result of the relationship, writes veteran LeClairRyan aviation attorney Mark Dombroff in a new post at CorporateComplianceIn- sights.com. “Whenever drones are flown for commercial purposes—ev- erything from wedding pho- tography to inspection of in- dustrial smokestacks—their use is subject to Part 107 of the Federal Aviation Regu- lations,” writes Dombroff, a shareholder in the national law firm’s Alexandria office and co-leader of its aviation in- dustry practice. “That means that companies, when they hire drone-operating vendors, need to carefully scrutinize those vendors’ compliance status.” In the post (“Lessons in Liability: Drones 101”), Dom-

broff discusses some of the risks in this area and offers four specific tips to help com- panies shield themselves from liability. In today’s economy, he writes, companies are increas- ingly using drones for a wide range of purposes, such as inspecting gas pipelines, tak- ing real estate photographs or “delivering” products as part of marketing campaigns. Un- manned Aerial Systems (UAS) even promise to improve safety in some circumstances. “What would you rather do,” the at- torney writes, “climb a 200- foot tower or use a drone to conduct that inspection?” Nonetheless, the prospect of UAS occasionally being involved in accidents is quite real, Dombroff notes. He points to three recent accidents in which drones were involved
in collisions (with a U.S. Army Black Hawk Helicopter, fans sitting in the upper deck at a baseball stadium and a plane on its approach to an airport in Quebec). The attorney also cites hypo- thetical “nightmare scenarios” involving lack of compliance on the part of drone pilots hired by a company. “A utility unknowingly hires an unli- censed, inexperienced drone operator to inspect some power lines,” he writes. “After the pilot hits a line and causes the drone to careen onto a nearby highway, a deadly traffic acci- dent ensues. Could the utility be sued? Absolutely.” Before hiring a vendor for drone-related services, Dombroff advises, companies should consider taking the following steps: continued on page 3A

M id A tlantic R eal E state J ournal Consolidates its three NYC offices into a single, collaborative 13,500 s/f workspace LiRo Architects+Planners designs regional New York City HQ for its parent firm, The LiRo Group N EW YORK, NY — The LiRo Group (LiRo) , a national,
new offices. First, they would be consolidating various groups, including LAP; LiRo’s renowned Virtual Design, Construction, and Operations (VDCO) team; construction and project management per- sonnel; and the engineering staff in disciplines ranging from civil to structural. The goal was to house all of these operations in one office in a manner that allows for the utmost in workspace flexibility and openness, fostering open communication among groups, and helping the teams work better together on interdisci-
plinary projects. While there are designated work areas for the various groups, it was decided early on that the new space should pro- mote open communication and collaboration among them all. According to Joseph Grant, AIA , VP, division leader, Ar- chitecture, who led the design work, “We wanted to promote ‘openness’ and ‘transparency’ in every sense of those words, and we wanted to foster an egalitarian, democratic atmo- sphere. We used a great deal of glass and open-plan worksta- tions to achieve that.” n
multidisciplinary construction and program management, architecture and engineering, and environmental solutions firm, has just opened its new NewYork City hub on the 28th floor of One State Street Plaza in the Battery Park section of Lower Manhattan. T h e f i rm ’ s a r c h i t e c - t u r e d i v i s i o n , L i R o Architects+Planners (LAP) , designed the new $3 million, 80-person workspace to be large and flexible enough to accommodate future growth, as the rapidly expanding LiRo has doubled its number of personnel in the last five years alone. The contemporary, open, and collaborative 13,500 s/f workspace, taking up ap- proximately three-quarters of the floor, consolidates several different LiRo functions from three former Manhattan lo- cations, and has effectively doubled the amount of office space the company occupies in the city. LAP led the search effort for the new space and helped define three main functional requirements for the firm’s • Confirm and get in writ- ing that only federally tested and licensed pilots will oper- ate drones on behalf of your company; as part of this due diligence, be sure to check the certificates of all pilots who will be conducting flights. • Be sure that the third-par- ty vendor is properly insured to cover drone operation. This is not a given. Insurers often consider aviation a special risk category that requires either a separate policy or an endorse- ment that provides coverage for drones as an addition to an existing policy. • Consider requiring the vendor to add your company to its insurance policy as an additional insured, a standard risk-management practice across American business. • Understand the basic rules/guidelines pertaining to drone operation under federal regulations, so that you can keep your vendors honest.

I
n at least 15 of the 21 years I have worked in commercial real estate, a
try seems to be largely acting like the characters in one of those disaster movies (you know the ones with the really good special effects) where the giant asteroid is hurtling toward earth from a million miles away, and all they can do is gleefully wait for the end to come (I will get back to this concept later). I am not say- ing that an asteroid is going to destroy your world, but I am saying that you may soon not have enough debt service coverage to refinance out of your current loan. Rates have been really low
for a really long time. The 10-year treasury rate, which stands at 2.71% as of this writ- ing, has not crossed 3 percent for nearly seven years, but at the rate things have been going for the last few months it would appear to be a pretty sure bet you will see it hap- pen this year. Seven years is a really long time to be living in an artificially low rate en- vironment, and I would wager that just about anyone who was working in this industry seven years ago is a much hap- pier camper today than they were back in 2011 as all this
free money has created good times for all. To provide some perspective on just how low we are talk- ing and to remind everyone of historical norms, I decided to include a chart of the 10-year for the last 54 years. What this chart basically says is that rates fell off a cliff around 15 years ago following the reces- sion that resulted from the tech bubble bursting and have been trending down since. I will let you figure out what the grey bars mean… So where does that leave us now that the party may well
be ending and we are on our way back to economic sobriety? Well, I think anyone willing to take an honest assessment of things would be willing to acknowledge certain indiscre- tions that have occurred as a result of all this free money, and maybe even more so from the “paradigm shift” to a view that free money is the new normal. For some develop- ers, such as those who used a 3.75% permanent rate to make the numbers work in their pro forma two years ago when they were in the planning phase, it’s going to feel like a massive hangover. But the good news is that there is still room for most of us on the last rocket off the earth so to speak. Most economists expect rates to be around 50 basis points higher across the yield curve by year end. That’s half a point! It may be the difference between getting to your loan amount or not, or the difference of tens or hundreds of thousands in ad- ditional interest over the next ten years. You can continue to stare at the asteroid or you can get on the last ship out of town. Your choice. R.
