Securitised debt and public filers

Filings (2001 to date) that name “Hudson Valley Mall” and “Kingston” (21 hits, first 21 sampled, 8 other filers such as tenants left out). A strong match to a commercial-mortgage trust means the mall very likely backed, or backs, a securitised loan; several trusts usually means one loan split into pari-passu notes. Earliest trust filing in the sample 2002-06-11 (a sample date, not the issuance date); Whether the loan is still in the pool, in special servicing or repaid is in the trust's monthly distribution reports, which are not searchable here.
