On May 7 of this year, UCSI officially broke ground on Phase 1 of the Keahumoa Place affordable housing project. Site work is now well underway.
Seth Marushige, Project Manager, describes some of the challenges unique to the project:
“The 37 buildings (320 units) are broken out into 4 separate phases. Each phase is considered to be a stand alone project, meaning we will be signing a separate contract with the owner for each phase. That means 4 times the sub/vendor contracts need to be written, 4 times the billings, submittals, etc.”
Turnover of Phase 1 is expected as early as July 15, 2019 with turnover of Phase 2 and 3 later that year.
