In 1979 downtown Los Angeles was primarily a dilapidated industrial area where few ventured. Seeing potential where others saw only urban blight, Maxxam’s principals were among the first to begin converting old industrial warehouses and under-utilized parking lots into desirable retail, wholesale, office and showroom space in what is today the Fashion District of downtown Los Angeles. Eventually, the company developed nearly 4 dozen such properties in the area, with several of the developments winning awards.
Since those early days, Maxxam has diversified, across property types and regional markets. To date, the company has acquired or developed more than 200 properties throughout California, Hawaii, Western United States and other select markets.
