Ko'ula is Howard Hughes' 6th tower in its Ward Village community. Planned for the "second row", Ko'ula has great ocean views with limited obstruction from the "first row" buildings. Ko'ula features 570 market residential units with no affordable housing units. There is over 58,000 square feet of commercial space, 58,000 square feet of outdoor/indoor recreational space, and over 10,000 of open space on the ground level.
A unique feature of Ko'ula is that the lobby and all residential services were moved to the second floor, allowing the entire first floor to be open for commercial space. The architect for Ko'ula is Jeanne Gang from Studio Gang out of Chicago, and the interior designer is Yabu Pushelberg, who are both well known for their work designing Four Seasons Hotels around the world.
