The New Honolulu: Ward Village was named “Master-Planned Community of the Year."

Is Honolulu becoming the next big global city? I'll show you why this is one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Hawaii. Developed by The Howard Hughes Corporation®, Ward Village is a 60-acre coastal master-planned community in the heart of Honolulu located between downtown and Waikīkī in the Kaka’ako district. Ward Village is growing faster than ever in 2026 with new luxury towers like 'Ilima and Melia rising, the skyline is unrecognizable. At full build-out, the community will consist of more than 4,500 residences and a massive expansion of retail space.
