Letter: Save Manoa, don’t allow Aria Lane development
Dec 23, 2024
A recent letter correctly warned that Avalon Group’s proposed 158-unit high-density housing project threatens Manoa (“More scrutiny needed for Aria Lane in Manoa,” Star-Advertiser, Dec. 16). During a recent meeting about the archaeology and historic buildings at Saint Francis Manoa, labeled as “Temple Heiau” on a 1910 army map and referred to as the Kauala‘a Heiau by Emma Nakuina in her 1904 book of legends, it was disclosed that Avalon plans no affordable housing on site.
