Status as of September 2026

Owner-occupant sales began in June 2025. In late August 2026, Aloha State Daily reported new pricing on 48 residences and that demolition prep on the site was expected to begin in October 2026. Layton Construction was named general contractor in October 2025. In plain terms: this is an early-stage pre-construction purchase with a long runway before closing.

My take

Muse is the one to watch if you want Ala Moana walkability without Kaka'ako pricing on the bigger plans, and the price adjustments suggest the developer is working to hit presale targets. The trade-off is timing risk: with demolition prep only starting, you're looking at several years to completion. Make sure your deposit terms and the developer's financing contingencies are clear.

Questions I get about Muse Honolulu

When will Muse Honolulu be built?

Demolition prep was expected to start in October 2026. Construction of a 39-story tower typically takes several years after that. I'll track milestones for you.

What kinds of homes are at Muse?

Tower residences, urban lofts, two-story townhomes and penthouses, from studios to three bedrooms.

Is Muse near Ala Moana Center?

Yes, it's on Kapiolani Boulevard in the Ala Moana area, an easy walk to the center and to Don Quijote and the Kapiolani corridor.
