Another piece of the Kakaako revitalization puzzle has fallen into place, with Wednesday’s blessing of the Anaha luxury-condominium tower at Ward Village.

Residents of the 38-story building on Auahi Street (the one that looks like a glass-sided, wavy Jenga) started moving in Monday. And judging by the fact that some 307 of the 317 units are sold, people out there have money for housing that averages about $1.2 million. Factor in monthly maintenance fees for amenities — such as a fitness center, tennis and sand volleyball courts, and an ocean-view pool — and it’s neither for the faint of heart nor the light of pocketbook. One sale just this week, for example, was $810,000 for a 726-square-foot unit.

Next up in the Kakaako puzzle: Keauhou Place on South Street, which is expected to open later this month.

Reverse migration: Halekulani coming to Okinawa

Okinawa and Hawaii have bonds dating to the first migration in 1900 and culminating with the election of the state’s first governor of Okinawan ancestry. David Ige has made trips there, aimed at bolstering the business and cultural ties with that Japan prefecture.

And now there’s one more link. The Halekulani Corp., rooted in its Waikiki luxury hotel, is opening its second resort, on the beachfront of Onna Village in summer 2019. Not surprisingly, the investment is enabled by the expansion of the airport in Naha. Will the Halekulani’s Japan guests prefer staying closer to home? Time will tell.
