The new apartment complex includes 128 affordable rental units that feature one, two, and three-bedroom options for tenants earning between 30 percent and 60 percent of Honolulu’s area median income. The building is equipped with solar hot water and energy-efficient appliances and air conditioning. Each unit contains a full kitchen with quartz countertops, a stainless-steel sink, and Whirlpool refrigerator, range and range hood. Kitchen floors achieve a hardwood look by utilizing vinyl planks, while living areas and bedrooms have berber carpet, offering residents modern style accommodations.
