LOS ANGELES – Local developer Izek Shomof has acquired a 1.8-million-square-foot building in Los Angeles that previously served as a Sears mail-order distribution center for $29 million.

The property still contains a 185,000-square-foot Sears retail store on the ground floor, though the majority of space has been vacant since the early ‘90s.

The building was completed in 1927 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The seller was MJW Investments. The transaction was executed by Jeff Adkison, Brendan McArthur and Paul Sablock of Jones Lang LaSalle.
