Tribeca Associates sealed $61 million in construction financing from the Bank of the Ozarks for its proposed 26-story hotel at 143 Fulton Street in the Financial District.

The development firm closed on a $46.6 million building loan and a $14.4 million project loan from the Little Rock, Ark.-based lender on April 28, according to property records filed with the city Thursday.

The funds will go toward Tribeca Associates’ planned 228-room hotel development, which is slated to span 88,000 square feet and hold retail space on its first and second floors, as The Real Deal reported last year.

The city’s Department of Buildings approved Tribeca’s plans for the SLCE Architects-designed building in March.
