OREANDA-NEWS. Fitch Ratings has affirmed 11 classes of Citigroup Commercial Mortgage Trust, commercial mortgage pass-through certificates series 2013-GCJ11. A detailed list of rating actions follows at the end of this press release.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

The affirmations are based on the stable performance of the underlying collateral pool. There have been no delinquent or specially serviced loans since issuance. As of the March 2015 distribution date, the pool's aggregate principal balance has been reduced by 2.27% to \$1.18 billion from \$1.21 billion at issuance. Fitch has designated four Fitch loans of concern (5%).

The largest loan in the pool (7.2%), 39 Broadway, is secured by a 448,349 square foot (sf) office building located in the Financial District of New York City. The largest tenants are The Waterfront Commission (4.68%) and Beth Israel Medical Center (18%) with lease expirations in 2016 and 2018; respectively. The property was 94% occupied as of December 2014 with average rent of approximately \$38 per square foot (psf). There is approximately 6% upcoming rollover in 2015 and 14% in 2016. Per REIS as of the fourth quarter 2014, the downtown NYC office market vacancy rate is 9.5% with average asking rent of \$64.27 psf.

The second largest loan Empire Hotel & Retail (5.9%), is collateralized by a 423 key hotel located on Manhattan's Upper West Side. The property features a lobby bar and lounge, a pool deck and bar, three meeting places, an indoor/outdoor pool, a fitness center and a business center. The retail portion of the property is leased to five third-party tenants including the rooftop lounge. As of year-end (YE) 2014, the hotel was 89% occupied with an average daily rate (ADR) of \$248 and (RevPAR) at \$220.

The third largest loan, Christown Spectrum (5.5%), is secured by a 1,038,765 sf (850,638 sf of which is collateral) retail center located in Phoenix, AZ. The mall is anchored by Walmart (24%), Costco (15%), and JC Penney (9.43%) with lease expirations in 2023, 2020, and 2037; respectively. There is also a Target at the subject, which is not part of the collateral. The property, which is the oldest continuously operated shopping mall in Phoenix, was built in phases from 1961 to 1984 and underwent a \$10 million renovation completed in 2007. The property was 98% occupied as of December 2014 with minimal expected rollover in 2015 and 2016.
