A look at the status of several Madison Equities properties:

U.S. Bank Center, 101 E. Fifth St.: Mortgage holder First Interstate Bank filed to foreclose on the property in December after being unable to collect on $24 million in outstanding debt, and Ramsey County District Judge Stacy Deery Stennes appointed a limited receiver for the office building Feb. 28. The building was described as 57% occupied early last year when it was put up for sale alongside other Madison Equities properties downtown.

Park Square Court, 400 Sibley St.: Lender Merchants Bank filed to foreclose on the property in October after calling back two loans, totaling $5.7 million and $2.7 million in unpaid principal, interest and fees. Ramsey County District Judge Edward Sheu entered a foreclosure judgment Feb. 10. The building is vacant and Lowertown neighbors have complained of trespassers and vandalism.

First National Bank, 332 Minnesota St.: The building was listed as 45% occupied in a sales memorandum last year.

Alliance Center, 55 E. Fifth Street: Madison Equities has effectively walked away from the office building, which contains a once-popular food court, and informed tenants on March 10 that they would need to vacate immediately as security and maintenance was no longer in effect and utilities would soon be shut off. It was listed as 43% occupied early last year, but is expected to be vacant by April 1.

375 Jackson Square, 375 Jackson St.: The building — home to the St. Paul Department of Safety and Inspections — was listed as 53% occupied in a sales memorandum last year.

Empire Building/Endicott Arcade, 360 N. Robert St./134 E. Fifth St.: Judge Leonardo Castro appointed a receiver for the vacant buildings in November, and Merchants Bank acquired the properties for $1.37 million in a foreclosure auction last December, according to the Ramsey County Recorder’s Office.

Lowry Apartments, 345 N. Wabasha St.: The troubled apartment building was sold in a sheriff’s sale last September to lender Colliers International for $7 million. The city condemned the building in early December and cleared it of tenants.

Degree Apartments, 325 Cedar St.: Minnwest Bank acquired the apartment building last December for $9.58 million in a deed-in-lieu-of-foreclosure sale.

Other properties put up for sale by Madison Equities last year include the Stadium Ramp at 245 E. Sixth St., the Capital City Ramp at 50 E. Fourth St., the Handsome Hog at 173 N. Western Ave. and a surface parking lot at 401 Selby Ave.
