Size: 655,000 sq. ft.
Developer: Seventh Street Development
General Contractor: KPRS Construction Services, Inc.
Architect: rkz, inc.
The enormous 655,000 square foot Huy Fong Corporate Headquarters and Manufacturing Facility is the largest single building ever built in the City of Irwindale and the largest building constructed in Los Angeles County in the last two years.
But sheer size, while impressive, is perhaps not the primary story surrounding this project – rather, it is a remarkable success story about the successful redevelopment of a severely blighted, vacant and contaminated property into an enormous yet elegant, environmentally sustainable facility created to house an American Dream-experiencing, family-owned business, Huy Fong Foods. The ambitious project, which broke ground in October of 2010 and was completed in less than a year, now serves as a model that future mining reclamation/redevelopment projects in the area can look to for guidance.

Seventh Street Development president Craig Furniss, with Seventh Street’s Janna Cowan and Michele Bancalari, thinks so—the company has sold a pair of industrial buildings to two local manufacturers. Yesterday, Craig told us manufacturing seems to be picking up and leading the economy, both nationally and in SoCal. “We always look for empirical evidence of that, and we’re seeing that in our portfolio.” At the 462k SF Mission-71 Business Park in Pomona, Eden Equipment Co, which makes specialized filtration products for things like commercial pools and desalination plants in Saudi Arabia, bought an 18.5k SF building.
