The transformation of 81-85 Bluxome Street from an industrial building that housed the old Hot House gay porn studio to a very sexy RIM-designed office building took a big step forward yesterday. Mortgage broker Newmark Realty announced that they have secured $28.5 million to finance construction and a groundbreaking will be held in October. When construction finishes up at the end of 2015, the new building will include 55,000 square feet of office space with floor-to-ceiling windows on the front facade, overlooking Bluxome Street. Its five floors will also have multiple levels of open rooftop space. Although there won't be any parking for cars, there will be room for 17 bikes.
