KBRA affirms all outstanding ratings for MSSG 2017-237P, a CMBS SASB transaction. The rating actions follow a surveillance review of the transaction, which has exhibited performance generally in line with KBRA’s last ratings change in August 2025.

The trust collateral consists of four pari passu A notes totaling $132.6 million and four B notes totaling $345.2 million. The remaining portion of the $693.2 million whole mortgage loan consists of eight pari passu A notes totaling $215.4 million, which are not part of the trust collateral. The 10-year, fixed-rate whole loan is secured by the borrower’s fee and leasehold condominium interests in a 21-story, 1.3 million sf Class-A office building at 237 Park Avenue in Midtown Manhattan’s Grand Central submarket. Affiliates of RXR Realty LLC (RXR) and Walton Street Capital (Walton Street) are the loan sponsors.

KBRA analyzed the cash flow for the property utilizing information from the trustee and servicer to determine KNCF. The analysis produced a KNCF of $40.8 million and a KBRA adjusted value of $408.0 million ($326 per sf). The current KLTV is 169.9%, a change from 170.4% at last review and 89.2% at issuance. KBRA maintains the loan’s K-LOC status and KPO of Underperform due to declining performance since issuance and tenant rollover in 2027 and 2028. The loan matures in August 2027.
