History

The company's roots go back to the 1900s in Montreal. It was known then as the Canadian Arena Company. The company operated the Westmount Arena. In a partnership with Toronto investors, it build the Arena Gardens in Toronto. In the 1920s, it built the Montreal Forum. From 1935, for several decades, the company owned the Montreal Canadiens National Hockey League club. In the 1970s, when the company was known as Carena Properties, it expanded its business into commercial real estate. [cite web |url=http://www.brookfieldproperties.com/history.htm |title=Brookfield: History |publisher=Brookfield Properties] After the Montreal Forum closed, the Forum was sold to competitor Canderel Properties.

It lost out to Silverstein Properties, Inc. on the lease of the World Trade Center in New York, a few months before the complex was destroyed on September 11, 2001.

In 2006, the company acquired Trizec Properties.
