Kaiāulu ʻō Kaka‘ako Master Plan
Kamehameha Schools’ Kaiāulu ʻō Kaka‘ako Master Plan (KKMP) calls for the development of a mixed-use, mixed-income neighborhood featuring a range of housing options for owners and renters – from low-rise residences to high-rise towers – inviting green spaces, walking paths, and experiences. Increment I of this urban community in Honolulu has provided a successful start to fulfill Kamehameha Schools’ vision for Our Kaka‘ako.
Upcoming Development Projects in Increment II
Under Increment II, Our Kaka‘ako will gain additional affordable, workforce and market-priced housing, retail areas, open spaces, broad sidewalks and public art. Our Kakaʻako is providing a brighter future for Hawaiʻi by creating new places for people to live and work.
As with Increment I, Kamehameha Schools will partner with developers on residential rental projects and commercial spaces. With respect to for-sale condominium projects, development companies purchase Kamehameha Schools land, build projects, and offer individual units for sale to residential buyers.
