Kakaako Highrise Condo Living
A few weeks a friend of mine asked me to look for a condo in town that might be a good investment, and yesterday we checked out the 400ft tall Imperial Plaza imperial plazabuilding in Kakaako. It's a 40 story condo building built in the 1991 with 241 units. Many of them have great ocean views, starting at $499,000 going up to $1.35 million. The largest units are over 4300 sq/ft!
From starter condos to luxury penthouses, The Imperial Plaza's appeal reaches many with views like this.
There are several two story units in the buiding, and when you're in one of these you forget you're in a condo highrise at all.
The building is about to undergo some renovations, get new security cameras and key fob entry system, automatic gates for the garage, and exterior paint.
The location of the Imperial Plaza building, which is the corner of Kapiolani and Cooke, is one its great selling points. It's 5 minutes to Waikiki, 3 minutes to Ala Moana, and 20 minutes to the airport. You can get to the Pail in about 5 minutes without traffic, so getting across the island is easy from here.
The building has a security guard in the lobby and a great water fountain in the entryway. You also get use of a pool and bbq rec area on the 6th floor. While it's located right in town, when you close your windows it's surprisingly quiet.
For highrise living in town, the Imperial Plaza is one of the best options
