Financial District Properties (FDP) develops, manages and owns properties that are primarily located in the Midwest. FDP owns, manages, maintains and leases over $150 million of real estate.

FDP has a history of working in partnership with local governments to expand city development efforts and contribute to the municipality’s long-term economic plans. FDP utilizes unique funding sources including new market tax credits, historic tax credits, brownfield grants, HUD insured financing, syndication financing, as well as conventional mortgages and bonds. FDP has a strong commitment to utilizing energy-efficiency and sustainability in its building designs and development projects. Some techniques it has employed include solar panels, low VOC coatings, adhesives and sealants, bamboo paneling, and the use of recycled materials.

In 2012, FDP finished the $40 million KONE Centre project, a mixed-use 8 story building which utilitized $30 million in NMTC allocation coupled with Midwestern Disaster Relief Bonds. At the time, it was the first and only occurrence of these funding sources being utilized jointly. The project was the first ever LEED Platinum core and shell building in the state of Illinois.

In 2015, FDP finished the $17 million Union Arcade project, converting a hundred year-old commercial office building in downtown Davenport into 68 market rate apartments. The building employed historic tax credits and maintained historic building features and standards. The building was at 97% occupancy within two months after construction completion. This building was backed by HUD financing and won an award for excellence in historic renovation. (www.unionarcadedowntownliving.com).

FDP is working on the $40 million transformation of a former Deere warehouse on the TechWorks campus in Waterloo, IA into a 180 unit hotel, John Deere training center and a Black Oak Grill restaurant. The hotel will be adjacent to the recently opened John Deere Tractor & Engine Museum.
