Tenants are expected to begin moving in this week to 38 affordable rental apartments on the second floor of the Maunakea Marketplace in Honolulu’s Chinatown developed by a group that included former Hawaii Gov. Neil Abercrombie [and architectural firm Design Partners Inc.].

MKM LLC, whose members also include building owner Russell Geyser of Geyser Holdings, converted 25,000 square feet of former storage space above the retail center into 38 studio, one- and two-bedroom units for tenants making no more than 60% of the area median income with four units reserved for families transitioning from homelessness.
