About

Lathan Development, established in 2019, is a real estate development firm dedicated to transforming historic buildings into vibrant spaces for Alabama communities.

We’re passionate about unearthing the hidden potential within historic structures. Through careful restoration and design, we transform these landmarks into spaces that serve modern needs and foster a sense of connection to the past.

Investing in Alabama’s heritage is at the heart of everything we do. By leveraging Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credits and other innovative financing solutions, we ensure that historic buildings important to communities remain intact and find new use.

Our Work

Lathan Development’s experienced team knows development of historic buildings inside and out.

What We Do:

  • Identify and evaluate historic buildings with redevelopment potential, focusing on residential, office, retail and mixed use asset classes.
  • Secure historic tax credits (HTC) and other financial incentives.
  • Oversee the rehabilitation process, ensuring the building’s historic integrity is preserved.
  • Partner with tenants to create a thriving space that meets the needs of the community.
