In April 2016, Pan Am Equities sold 6 multifamily rental buildings in the East Village to The Lightstone Group for $127 million.[6]
In 2019 the firm announced the Glassell Park project, a 419-unit apartment complex located at the entrance of the new Bowtie State Park along the Los Angeles River. The project received harsh criticism from river activists.[7][8]
