Project partners plan to begin work in late July on a first-of-its-kind, $70-million, six-story facility at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa that integrates student housing and an innovation/entrepreneurship center, funded with private, non-taxpayer money. The university and UH Foundation are working together in a public-private partnership (P3) with Hunt Development Group to design, build and finance the live, learn, work innovation facility at the Atherton YMCA location.
It is one of a number of P3 and real estate projects UH is pursuing to more affordably build modern educational facilities and develop alternative revenue streams to support the UH mission.
