high rise condos.
Downtown Honolulu Chinatown
Located between Nu'uanu Stream and Nu'uanu Avenue, Honolulu's Chinatown at one time was the center of Chinese cultural contact on the island. Central to this area is the open-air O'ahu Market. The area around Nu'uanu Avenue has become a center for the arts in recent years, thanks to the recent renovation of the Hawaii Theatre.
Downtown Honolulu Waterfront
Honolulu's waterfront area centers on Aloha Tower, which was once the tallest building in Hawaii and the site where cruise ships would dock before the advent of air travel between Hawaii and the U.S. Mainland. Recently, cruise ships between the Hawaiian Islands now dock at Honolulu Harbor. Click on the link to search waterfront condos in Downtown Honolulu. |
