About Our Kaka‘ako
What is Our Kaka‘ako?
A Unique Community.
As the emerging epicenter of progressive urban island living, Our Kaka‘ako is a vibrant community, encompassing nine city blocks in the heart of Kaka‘ako, that is home to artists, entrepreneurs, chefs, innovators and influencers. Rooted in Hawaiian cultural values and anchored by a strong sense of place, Our Kaka‘ako embraces creativity, inspires learning and discovery, and serves as a catalyst for new and innovative ideas. As a popular place to dine, shop, work, live, learn and visit, Our Kaka‘ako is truly a unique, dynamic local community.
A Continuing Legacy.
Kamehameha Schools was founded through the will of Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop, the last direct descendant of King Kamehameha I. Our Kaka‘ako is a master planned community of Kamehameha Schools, whose mission is to fulfill Princess Pauahi’s desire to create educational opportunities in perpetuity to improve the capability and well-being of people of Hawaiian ancestry. Through her legacy, Kamehameha Schools has been endowed with over 363,000 acres of land statewide, most of which is in agriculture and conservation. Kamehameha Schools’ endowment exists to support its educational mission. Today, these commercial assets (98%) almost entirely fund the Schools’ statewide educational programs serving more than 47,000 learners. Kamehameha Schools is committed to the smart, progressive and culturally appropriate stewardship of those lands. Our Kaka‘ako is an important part of that ongoing commitment.
A Vision for the Future.
Our Kaka‘ako will continue to evolve as redevelopment renews the community. This walkable, sustainable, pet-friendly neighborhood will feature additional residences and open-air gathering spaces where neighbors and friends can talk story and share ideas. A variety of housing options will be available for residents and families of various income levels. As Our Kaka‘ako continues to develop in the years to come, it will remain rooted in the culture, values and progressive spirit of this special place.
We invite you to take part in the revitalization of this community. Our Kaka‘ako is your Kaka‘ako.
