A History of Innovation and Growth

Barnett Burton's vision of providing quality, affordable housing helped establish a foundation for success. After the Great Depression, his brothers-in-law, Lester Burton and Sydney Katzman, joined forces to expand the business, building thousands of homes throughout the Detroit suburbs. Their commitment to creativity and forward-thinking resulted in numerous industry firsts, including the development of major commercial, industrial, and master-planned communities. As the company grew, so did its reach. The Burton-Katzman legacy expanded beyond Southeastern Michigan to encompass new markets in Ohio, Florida, the Carolinas, and California.
