The preparation and implementation of The Irvine Ranch® Master Plan was made possible by the commitment to retain the land in its entirety. The Irvine Company resisted intense pressure to sell the land piece by piece to the highest bidders. The Ranch that James Irvine purchased in 1876 in the form of assembled Spanish and Mexican land has remained intact and in private ownership.
Rich in history, The Irvine Ranch land is considered a precious and nonrenewable resource, an asset not to be sold or squandered for short-term gain, but to be held onto and used in ways that are carefully planned to benefit those who choose to live and work here.
