Governor Josh Green, M.D., and other government officials joined the developers of the Ililani condominium project to celebrate the completion of the 328-unit project on May 17.
 
Ililani boasts 328 total units, with 197 deemed affordable one- and two-bedroom apartments. The development at Keawe and Pohukaina streets provides crucial housing opportunities for local families in the heart of one of the fastest growing neighborhoods on Oʻahu.
 
“Making housing more affordable for working class families so they can realize their dream of owning their first home is so heartwarming and will go a long way in addressing the affordable housing crisis,” Green said.
 
HHFDC reviewed, approved and transmitted the developer’s application requesting exemptions from several developer fees and charges to the Honolulu City Council, which subsequently approved the exemptions. Similarly, a number of exemptions from zoning and land-use regulations were granted with the concurrence of the state Hawaiʻi Community Development Authority.
 
Units remain available for purchase. Prices for one-bedroom units start at $477,500 and two-bedroom units cost as little as $582,100. Find more information at https://liveililani.com/.
