The Pa‘auilo-based nonprofit Hawaiian Legacy Reforestation Initiative, which has planted more than 2,000 native trees as part of the partnership with Gentry Homes, says: ‘Hawai‘i’s most valuable asset is its ecosystem. We all have a responsibility to protect it.’
Hawaii hired a developer to build homes to deliver on a century-old promise of reparations to Native Hawaiians. But the state didn’t inspect construction. Homeowners said they’ve had water damage, air conditioning breakdowns and other issues.

400 homes planned in West Oahu under Kalaeloa master development Rendering of what the new homes could look like (Source: Gentry) By HNN Staff | March 3, 2021 at 8:48 PM HST - Updated March 3 at 8:52 PM
HONOLULU, Hawaii (HawaiiNewsNow) - A developer has been selected to build hundreds of homes in West Oahu.
Gentry Homes, Ltd. was selected by Hunt Companies to build 400 homes on Franklin D. Roosevelt Avenue, right behind the Kapolei Costco. The new community is a part of a master planned development in Kalaeloa.
The new residential community will feature 250 multi-family attached units, and 130 single-family detached homes.
The homes won’t be easing Oahu’s severe housing shortage immediately as work on the site isn’t slated to begin until next year, with completion of the first homes planned in 2023. It’s the severe lack of supply that has driven Oahu’s home prices higher than ever before during the pandemic.
