Donald Koll's House


Beverly Hills, California (CA), US
After graduation and service as an Air Force pilot, he founded a home-building company in 1962. One of the company's early jobs was building a replica of Independence Hall for Knott's Berry Farm. The firm would go on to develop more than 85 million square feet of office, industrial, retail and entertainment space, including the Koll Center complexes in Irvine and Newport Beach.

Koll's world extended with travels and projects as far away as China. He brought Jack Nicklaus-designed golf courses to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, to help turn the area into a destination resort. Last year he was one of two inaugural inductees into the Stanford Professionals in Real Estate (SPIRE) hall of fame and he received the Distinguished Eagle Scout Award from the Boy Scouts of America.
