Preservation Funds

Our Investment Strategy

  • Real Estate Acquisition Strategy

    We buy historic real estate with valuable development rights. After purchase, we place the property under a historical preservation easement (HPE), giving our investors a non-cash charitable tax deduction that enhances their capital return and lowers investment risk. We focus on stabilizing and optimizing the property’s cash flow, which may involve redevelopment. This process can attract Federal and State tax incentives that cover 40% or more of the redevelopment costs.

  • Business Acquisition Strategy

    In addition to our historic real estate acquisitions, we also identify legacy American industrial manufacturing businesses to acquire. We focus on companies with great people and strong customers. We target opportunities with <$1M up to about $3M in earnings at valuations of 2-3 times earnings.

  • Investment Characteristics

    The fund aims to generate operating income through the real estate and business portfolio that is tax efficient based on depreciation of assets and other available tax incentives at the Federal, State and Local levels. The fund targets a 5-7 year hold period followed by a liquidation of the real estate and a sale of the business portfolio via an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP).

  • Fund Highlights

Our Mission

We are committed to preserving historically significant real estate and legacy industrial manufacturing businesses in local communities throughout the United States. Our investment strategy leverages Federal, State, and local tax incentives to de-risk and enhance returns on our equity investments.


By utilizing these incentives and our expertise in investment management, we aim to create value not only for our investors but also for the communities in which we invest.

Revived Westmoreland metal fabricator maps big expansion

July 17, 2025
Kris B. Mamula Pittsburgh Post-Gazette A Westmoreland County precision metal fabricator has big plans for expansion, following acquisition by a Tennessee outfit in May. Nashville-based investment group Manufacturing Corporation of America acquired the equipment and machining assets of Fossil Industries then promptly rehired six employees who were with Fossil when it closed, also in May. Within 18 months, Fossil, now operating as a division of MCA, anticipates having a workforce of 50 people, Steve Austin, an MCA founder and company CEO, said Thursday. In addition, MCA anticipates doubling the size of Fossil’s approximately 40,000-square-foot plant, which is located in Westmoreland Technology Park II, a 143-acre development in East Huntingdon and Hempfield townships in Westmoreland County. “There’s pretty strong demand right now for what we do,” Mr. Austin said. “There’s lots of sophisticated, high-end equipment there, and to get all that sophistication under one roof today is uncommon in the industry.” Fossil was founded by veteran engineer James Rose, of Murrysville, as a high-tech manufacturing startup about five years ago. The company specialized in precision sheet and tube cutting, 3D design and welding services. Fossil also manufactured a line of consumer products, including barbecue grills, fireplace components and aftermarket automotive parts, which were not part of the MCA deal. Mr. Rose was not available for comment. Shares of privately held MCA are available to employees through a stock ownership plan, which provides retirement benefits and a stake in the company. Proceeds from the sale of an MCA division become a return for investors, Mr. Austin said.
