Summary:
- Hale Haukani, a $170 million student housing complex at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa, opened with 316 units and 558 beds primarily for graduate students and junior faculty, developed through a public-private partnership (P3) with minimal state funding and tuition revenue.
- Privately financed and operated by the Collegiate Housing Foundation and Greystar, Hale Haukani adds to UH Mānoa’s total of over 4,000 on-campus beds, easing Honolulu’s rental market and supporting the university’s strategy to expand affordable student housing through P3 projects.
- The complex includes a new 9,000-square-foot UH Mānoa Children’s Center, increasing childcare capacity from 90 to 130 children and advancing statewide early childhood education goals under the Ready Keiki initiative, supported by a $10 million state contribution.
