Development Update – November 2025

  • Work continues at Kaihalulu East Drive, mauka drainage basins, and vertical construction at RR3 phase 1

  • Shoreline restoration and native planting are ongoing

  • November marks the beginning of the albatross breeding and nesting season in Hawaii. In November, albatross arrive at court and nest, lay eggs in December, and the chicks typically fledge in July or August. A special mahalo to the North Shore Community Land Trust for their efforts to restore the area as a breeding ground for albatross, and for their collaboration with the Hawaii Marine Animal Response to monitor and protect albatross while they’re on land. Please exercise caution around the property and golf course during this time. We are reminding our contractors of the significance of this time and continuing to implement our wildlife training for all our vendors and contractors who work on-site. Please exercise caution around the property and golf course during this time.
