Because of recent actions by the Hawai’i County Council and Hawai‘i Gov. Josh Green, there is a mandate to fast track demolition of the abandoned 148-bedroom structure that formerly was Uncle Billy’s Hilo Bay Hotel along Banyan Drive.
For decades, Banyan Drive was known as the “Hilo Walk of Fame” because of the iconic banyan trees planted by celebrities, but now the area on the Big Island’s Waiakea Peninsula has become downtrodden and known more as a walk of shame.
Hawai’i Gov. Josh Green on Tuesday issued an emergency proclamation mandating the state take urgent action to deal with public safety issues at the former Uncle Billy’s Hilo Bay Hotel, which once was an iconic resort and is now abandoned and a magnet for trespassers and illegal activity.
