Wells Fargo & Co. (NYSE: WFC) said it has worked with Regions Bank to provide a $95 million loan to Corporate Plaza Partners, LLC for construction of the NASCAR Corporate Plaza adjacent to the future NASCAR Hall of Fame here.

Mark Neibch and Steve Lowery of Wells Fargo’s Real Estate Group in Chicago oversaw the transaction. The developer of the six-acre project is Indianapolis-based Lauth Group Inc.

Upon completion in 2009, the NASCAR plaza will be a 19-story, 376,401 square-foot office building anchored by the auto racing organization. The building will be integrated with the NASCAR Hall of Fame. Pei, Cobb & Freed Partners, the New York-based architectural firm that designed the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, designed the NASCAR facility with a metal band that twists and wraps around its exterior, reflecting the track that is central to the sport.

Wells Fargo has a historical relationship with the sport of NASCAR, including providing commercial banking services to the auto racing organization. Wells Fargo Financial has sponsored the Petty Enterprises team for five years, and Kyle Petty will drive the No. 45 Wells Fargo Dodge in 12 races this season.
