It can be subdivided into four neighborhoods – the Capitol District, the Central Business District, Chinatown and the Waterfront. Located within the State Capitol District are federal, state, and city governmental buildings most notably the Hawaii State Capitol, Honolulu Hale (city hall), and Iolani Palace. The State Capitol Building opened in 1969 and is considered a unique work of architecture. The cone-shaped chambers represent Hawaii’s volcanoes while the building columns are reminiscent of palm trees.

Iolani Palace is the only royal palace on American soil. It had served as the royal residence for Hawaii’s last two monarchs, King Kalakaua and Queen Liliuokalani. Today, guided tours are available at Iolani Palace. Across the street from Iolani Palace is the King Kamehameha Statute, which fronts Honolulu’s old judicial building. The statue pays tribute to Hawaii’s warrior king and stands eight feet six inches high. Every June 11 on Kamehameha Day, which is a state holiday, the statue is adorned with beautiful floral leis, some as long as 18 feet in length.[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][fusion_builder_column type=”1_3″ last=”yes” spacing=”yes” center_content=”no” hide_on_mobile=”no” background_color=”” background_image=”” background_repeat=”no-repeat” background_position=”left top” hover_type=”none” link=”” border_position=”all” border_size=”0px” border_color=”” border_style=”” padding=”” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” animation_type=”” animation_direction=”” animation_speed=”0.1″ animation_offset=”” class=”” id=””][fusion_map address=”1314 South King St, Honolulu, HI 96814″ type=”roadmap” map_style=”custom” overlay_color=”” infobox=”default” infobox_background_color=”” infobox_text_color=”” infobox_content=”” icon=”theme” width=”100%” height=”333px” zoom=”12″ scrollwheel=”yes” scale=”yes” zoom_pancontrol=”no” animation=”yes” popup=”yes” class=”” id=””][/fusion_map][fusion_separator style_type=”none” top_margin=”27″ bottom_margin=”” sep_color=”” border_size=”” icon=”” icon_circle=”” icon_circle_color=”” width=”” alignment=”” class=”” id=””/][fusion_title size=”4″ content_align=”left” style_type=”double solid” sep_color=”rgba(000,000,000,.3)” margin_top=”” margin_bottom=”” class=”” id=””]Office Locations in the Community[/fusion_title][fusion_separator style_type=”none” top_margin=”-15″ bottom_margin=”” sep_color=”” border_size=”” icon=”” icon_circle=”” icon_circle_color=”” width=”” alignment=”” class=”” id=””/][fusion_text]

Located between Nuuanu Stream and Nuuanu Avenue, Chinatown is filled with ethnic eateries, lei stands, fresh produce vendors, herbal shops and more. A small section on Nuuanu Avenue has become an Arts District and is home to cultural institutions, performing arts venues such as the historic Hawaii Theatre, galleries and arts events.

The focal point of the waterfront area Aloha Tower Marketplace, the only place in the country that combines a visitor attraction (Aloha Tower), shops, restaurants, and a working commercial harbor facility. Aloha Tower was once the tallest building in Hawaii when it was erected in 1926 to welcome passenger ships arriving at Honolulu Harbor. Architects designed the Marketplace to complement its location at Honolulu Harbor, even going as far as selecting a special shade of green for the roof tiles to blend in with the waterfront.
