Nohona Hale

Honolulu, HI

Nohona Hale was conceived in response to the Hawaii Community Development Authority’s RFP for development on a state-owned land parcel at 630 Cooke Street in the Kaka’ako Community Development District. Nohona Hale will provide 111 energy efficient micro-units on a 10,540 square foot lot, targeting individuals whose incomes are 30% or 60% AMI. It is a fourteen-story residential tower atop a two-level podium structure (sixteen floors in total) which contains common and recreation areas, offices, and a street-front commercial space. Other amenities will include a central laundry room and common area storage for bicycles and surfboards along with multiple community spaces allowing for meaningful interaction between neighbors and guests. The project is financed with tax exempt bond financing, Rental Housing Revolving Funds, tax credit and developer equity. The Total Development Cost was $52.8 Million.
