Howard Hughes Holdings Inc., formerly the Howard Hughes Corporation, is a real estate development and management company based in The Woodlands, Texas. It was formed in 2010 as a spin-off from General Growth Properties (GGP). Most of its holdings are focused on several master-planned communities. It took its name from the original Howard Hughes Corporation, which had developed the planned community of Summerlin, Nevada, and later became a subsidiary of GGP.

History

General Growth Properties filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2009.[1] The company proposed a reorganization plan that included spinning off a new company named General Growth Opportunities, which would include those properties that had long-term development potential but little or no income.[2] The name of the proposed spin-off was later changed to The Howard Hughes Corporation (HHC).[3] The spin-off of HHC to GGP's shareholders was completed on November 9, 2010, when GGP exited bankruptcy.[4][5] The new company held a portfolio that included GGP's master planned communities, mixed-use developments, and undeveloped land.[5] Hedge fund manager Bill Ackman was appointed chairman of the new company.[4]

In 2019, in response to investor disappointment with the company's stock price, HHC conducted a review of strategic options, including the possibility of selling the company.[6][7] Ultimately, the company announced a "transformation plan", under which it would focus on its master-planned communities and sell off $2 billion of non-core assets.[8][9] HHC moved its headquarters from Dallas to The Woodlands in 2020 as a cost-cutting measure under this plan.[10]

The company acquired its sixth master-planned community in 2021, purchasing the 37,000-acre Douglas Ranch development in the Phoenix area (later renamed to Teravalis) for $600 million.[11]

In 2023, HHC reorganized itself as a holding company named Howard Hughes Holdings, with the Howard Hughes Corporation as a subsidiary.[12] It then moved its entertainment-related properties into a new division, Seaport Entertainment, which it planned to spin off to shareholders by the end of 2024.[13][14] Seaport Entertainment's assets would include the South Street Seaport in Manhattan, the Las Vegas Aviators baseball team, the air rights to develop a casino at Fashion Show Mall on the Las Vegas Strip, and a minority stake in Jean-Georges Restaurants.[13]
