I Am Home

In 1965, our founder, Sanford Diller, saw an opportunity to invest in the future of Silicon Valley. Inspired by our namesake, the Greek titan who symbolized innovation and foresight, he built Prometheus Real Estate Group, a company focused on an entrepreneurial spirit.

Sanford spoke often about his deeply held family belief:

“There’s no one way to make your way in the world. Everyone’s path is their own. But we all have a responsibility to give back. It’s an obligation, a duty and a privilege, not a choice.”

We continue to honor that philosophy today.
