ABOUT RKR INCORPORATED

THE COMPANY

Ground-up development since 1986.

For 40 years, RKR Incorporated has developed commercial real estate from the ground up, turning raw land into centers that people use every day. Most of that work has been retail, and our specialty is what decides whether a center succeeds: tenant mix and site design.

RKR’s first project was in Santa Clarita, California, in 1986. Over the following decades, the company built much of that city’s commercial core as it grew into the third-largest city in Los Angeles County. Along the way, RKR has worked with institutional partners including MetLife, Cornerstone, Grosvenor Realty, and Newhall Land and Farming. In four decades, RKR has never failed to close an escrow and has completed every project it started.

Recent work includes CloudNine, a private luxury hangar campus at Camarillo Airport completed in 2023.

Today, RKR is based in Georgetown, Texas, bringing that experience to the growth of Central Texas, including The Crossings, a mixed-use shopping, lodging, and entertainment destination planned for the Georgetown–Leander corridor.
