Catellus Development Corp., one of the West's largest developers, is selling the majority of its home building operations. Is this a sign?

San Francisco-based Catellus is developing the 303-acre Mission Bay project in San Francisco and a mixed-use project at the former Alameda Naval Air Station in Alameda. Now the company is selling most of its development operations to a company called Brookfield Homes of California Inc.
