Janss Investment Company
The Janss Investment Company was a family run, Los Angeles, California, real estate development company that operated from 1895 to 1995.
==First generation==
The Janss Investment Company was founded by Peter Janss, an immigrant doctor from Denmark. Peter Janss graduated in the class of 1877 in Keokuk, Iowa, and by 1882 he was appointed Hall County physician.〔(1890 Hall County History )〕 He moved to Los Angeles in 1893, planning to practice medicine but discovered the real estate industry was much more lucrative. By 1906 he and his two sons, Edwin Janss Sr. and Harold Janss established an investment company, creating subdivisions in Boyle Heights, Monterey Park, and Yorba Linda.〔United States Commission on Industrial Relations, 1916, Industrial Relations: Final Report, Testimony of Edwin Janss - Janss Investment Company, Vol VI, p. 5826 - 5833〕
Janss developed Ramona Acres in Monterey Park.〔Timothy P. Fong, 1994, ''The first suburban Chinatown'', Temple University Press, ISBN 978-1-56639-262-4〕 Janss subdivided Highland Villa and Belvedere Gardens in Boyle Heights.〔( ''Broad Acres To Be Platted Janss Investment Company Makes Big Purchase'', Los Angeles Herald, April 02, 1905 )〕
In 1909, Janss subdivided a part of the Bernardo Yorba Rancho Cañón de Santa Ana property and named the new town "Yorba Linda".〔( Janss Investment Company advertisements for Yorba Linda land, Orange County Tribune 25 May 1910 )〕
