Building Analysis - One Ala Moana: ~ by Jonathan Ford Building and Site Features
One Ala Moana is a residential tower built in late 2014 by the MacNaughton and Kobayashi Groups - the same developers of the desirable Hokua and Capitol Place towers in Honolulu.
One Ala Moana is a concrete and steel tower enwrapped in double paned, low-emissivity glass. Designed to meet LEED certification with features liked zoned central, AC, Hot water partially heated by the buildings air-conditioning heat return, and in-unit hot water recirculation - which helps reduce wait time for hot water and water usage.
The site is uniquely located adjacent to the Nordstrom wing of the Ala Mona Shopping Center with Ala Moana Beach Park just across Ala Moana Blvd.
Common Areas for Residents
There is a main ground level lobby located off of Kapiolani Blvd, which also can be accessed via Kona street with resident parking on floors 4 and 5 of the parking garage.
The building has a 2 lobby design, which begins on the 4th floor parking level, which allows for more personable corridors with no more than 7 residences per floor.
The 6th floor is home to the recreation deck, complete with infinity pool, kiddie pool, hot tub, party room with kitchen, guest suites, theater, bbq grills, cabanas, secured dog park, kids area, multimedia room, library, putting green, gym, sauna, yoga/Pilates studio, massage room and more.
Secured lobbies, elevators, parking garage and recreation deck.
The building is pet friendly - no more than 2 pets per unit and no pets over 60lbs.
Floors 8-19. Designs by MacNaughton Group and Kobayashi Group.
Private Condo Features
Engineered hardwood flooring in high use areas such as entry, living area and kitchen. And, of course, all units come with space for full size washer/dryers. Units will also have zoned central AC, high speed internet and sprinkler fire protection.
Kitchens come with Sub-zero, Wolf, and Miele appliances - including gas cooktops. Both kitchens and bathrooms come with Studio Becker cabinetry, Kohler plumbing fixtures and quartz countertops.
On most floors (8-19) the ocean views can be found in units 00-10 and cooler, mountain-only views are found in units 11-15.
The Bottom Line Best features: Location, quality of design and engineering
Potential drawbacks: Lack true lanais for most units. Excellent views on upper levels but some of the mid an lower level units maybe looking over a bit more of the Ala Moana Shopping Center parking lot and rooftop than desired.
