Chiofaro was seeking a 15.8 percent return for the total project. His required return, amounting to $118 million, for the total project was about 11 percent. The hoped-for return was probably about $170 million.
Chiofaro's estimate of land and parking cost = $290 million
The total $290 million was allocated as follows:
> $58 million was added to condo cost
> $161 million was added to office cost
> $55 million was added to hotel cost
> $16.5 million was added to retail cost.
The BRA financial analysis cut building size by 25 percent to 900,000 sq ft, and gave Chiofaro a return of 10.9 percent. For most use categories, the BRA return was largely close to Chiofaro's required return percentage: e.g., Chiofaro said he needed a required return of 10.3 percent for the office component, the BRA's financial analysis gave him 10.1 percent. However, Chiofaro's projected (I get rich) return (above the required return) for the office component was 14.7 percent.
The office component was half the Chiofaro-projected building cost, (not including land and parking).
