The taxable Series B bonds will mature on Oct. 15, 2037.

Proceeds will be loaned to EREA425 to finance acquiring, building and equipping of two condominium properties totaling 140,000 square feet in a building on Westchester Avenue in the Bronx. The bonds are limited revenue obligations of Build NYC Resource, and are secured by loan payments from the borrower, money held in certain funds, and pledged collateral, among other assets.

The site will be leased to Zeta Charter Schools, a Delaware non-profit corporation. Zeta operates a network of public charter schools across New York City, according to documents on MuniOS.

S&P Global Ratings has given the bonds a rating of BB+.
