Howard Hughes Applies for Permits to Build Sixth Residential Tower in Kakaako

The Howard Hughes Corp has applied to the Hawaii Community Development Authority to build a sixth residential tower in their Ward Village project in Kakaako.  This 466-unit tower would be located adjacent to the Whole Foods store on Kamakee Street, behind the Ward Entertainment Center theaters.  The Whole Foods is expected be break ground next year and will be completed in 2017.  The tower, if approved, would be completed in 2018.  Under the plan, Whole Foods will have six levels of parking built above it with a total of 1,301 parking stalls.  The residential tower would be 38 stories tall and would also have some retail stores on its ground floor.

There will be several public hearings on the project, with the first one being on November 5, 2014.  Public testimony will be accepted at all three hearings.
