SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Pyramid Management Group, which owns Destiny USA in Syracuse, on Thursday said its lender has extended the terms of the loans on the mall and entertainment complex for five additional years.
Destiny USA owed $430 million on two mortgage-backed securities that missed a June 6 repayment deadline, Bloomberg reported in a Thursday article on its website.
The extension of Destiny USA’s loans allows Pyramid to continue to reinvest in the shopping center, “ensuring its health, vibrancy and dominant positioning in Central New York,” Pyramid contended in an announcement on its website.
