Essex Property Trust, Inc.
A self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT) that owns and runs apartment communities across Southern California, Northern California, and the Seattle metro area. Founder George Marcus started the company in 1971 as a private housing firm, and it went public in 1994. Though "Essex" echoes a county in England, the name carries no English connection—the firm has always been purely West Coast.
