As the 11th of 14 planned projects, it features 486 market-rate units across two structures on a 2.12-acre lot on the west corner of Ala Moana Blvd and Ward Ave, opposite Kalae. It’s a prime “front row” development, with Ilima and Melia being the last two front-row projects coming to Ward Village.

There have been no sales in The Launiu Ward Village over the past 36 months, making it impractical to create a graph for this condo. The graph above, therefore, represents all Kakaako condos.

We exclude Leasehold data from this market analysis because Leasehold properties do not compare with regular Fee Simple properties.
We use median instead of the average because it depicts more accurately a central tendency to the sample size. Example: Take 5 numbers - 3, 5, 7, 9, 21. The median is 7 (the middle number) and the average is 9 (sum of all divided by 5).
We count days on market from listing date through closing date.
