About The Project

Honolulu’s finest example of Postmodern historicism, Alii Place harkens back to 1930s-era skyscraper designs. With its graduated setbacks, Art Deco–inspired corner capitals and parapets, and encircling arcade, reminiscent of the former Theo Davies Building (demolished) on Bishop Street, this twenty-three-story office building and its adjoining nine-story, one-thousand-car parking garage are compatible neighbors for the historic buildings of the Capitol Historic District.

Elevated Heritage

Where Tradition Rises with Modern Grace

Alii Place stands as a dialogue between past and present — a soaring postmodern landmark that honors Honolulu’s architectural lineage while embracing contemporary form. Its Art Deco influences, polished materials, and thoughtful details reflect the spirit of the Capitol Historic District, creating a space where heritage and innovation ascend together.

Timeless Harmony

The Art of Architecture, The Soul of Hawaii

Inspired by the elegance of 1930s skyscrapers, Alii Place reinterprets history through a modern lens. Its refined geometry, island hues, and handcrafted details evoke both strength and serenity. More than an office building, it is a tribute to Hawaii’s royal past and a testament to design that endures — grounded in culture, yet reaching for the sky.
