Construction begins for ultra-luxury development in Honolulu set to open in 2025
Mana‘olana Partners announced in late November the first phase of construction has begun for The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Honolulu — which includes an environmental assessment — and is slated for completion in January 2023.
Following this, Hawaiian Dredging Construction Company, Inc. will oversee and manage the next phase of the project, including the removal of the existing slab from the previous development and preparing the foundation. Upon completion, the 37-story tower will rise 418 feet above the city, overlooking the Ala Moana coastline.
“This project is one of the most anticipated developments in Honolulu, and the community has been incredibly supportive and is ready for it to open,” said Rob Centra, senior vice president of design & construction management for Mana‘olana Partners. “The level of interest from contractors eager to be involved with what will become an iconic landmark of Honolulu, is overwhelming and a reflection of the positive impact this brand will have in our community.”
The sitework is projected to be complete in the third quarter of 2023 and vertical construction of the 743,000-square-foot luxury tower will follow, placing the entire project to be on track for a 2025 completion.
The luxury tower was envisioned by the lead design team Workshop architects+urbanists and offers dramatic views of the Pacific, the ever-changing Koʻolau mountain range and Honolulu’s iconic Diamond Head volcano.
“Mandarin Oriental is an iconic name brand and we are fortunate to be part of this landmark development in Hawai‘i,” said Eric Hashizume, vice president of the building division at Hawaiian Dredging Construction Company, Inc. “The entire team at Hawaiian Dredging is proud to partner with Mana’olana on this project. We are excited to restart our work so we can bring Mandarin Oriental, Honolulu and The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Honolulu, to life for the world to experience, showcasing all that Hawai‘i has to offer.”
Upon completion in 2025, The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, Honolulu, will be comprised of 99 spectacular residences, offering open floor plans, outdoor terraces and floor-to-ceiling windows. COURTESY OF HAROLD X CLARKE ADVISORS
