Reimagined Kawa Ida Towers
Description
A fresh start for the long-stalled towers project: a new local development team proposing 32 fully affordable units — 20 rentals and 12 condos — plus ground-floor retail hoped to become a community grocer.
Impact summary
Downtown would gain 100% affordable homes, a rare homeownership option, and a low-cost grocer — all needed in the Central Ward.
