Public comment sought for condo project

A state agency is soliciting more public comment on a proposed midrise condominium building in Kakaako today and Tuesday. The Hawaii Community Development Authority will hold the feedback sessions on the seven-story condo project called 803 Waimanu proposed for a site next to the existing Imperial Plaza high-rise.

The sessions will be in the agency’s office conference room at 461 Cooke St. at 10 a.m. today and 5:30 p.m. Tuesday. An initial public hearing was held last month. A second public hearing followed by an HCDA board vote is set for Jan. 8 at noon in HCDA’s conference room.
