Two years ago, DAGS had an ambitious goal for stadium construction possibly starting this year to debut a replacement in 2023. “The issuance of the NASED Stadium Project RFP will mark another progressive milestone for the creation of a vibrant live-work-play-thrive district with a multiuse stadium serving as the centerpiece,” she said. Now the three teams will be asked to submit plans with designs and costs only for a new stadium, though they could submit separate bids for what DAGS is calling the real estate portion of what is envisioned to become the New Aloha Stadium Entertainment District with homes, hotel rooms, retail and other commercial uses.Ī request for qualifications and rough ideas pertaining to the real estate portion of the project was published last month, and construction could begin in late 2022 or early 2023 after more detailed bids are sought and a winner is selected.Ĭhris Kinimaka, public works administrator for DAGS, said in a statement that it is satisfying to notify the three finalists about the release date of the request for proposals for the job to replace the 46-year-old stadium. The three development teams were picked last December as the most qualified to compete for redeveloping the entire 98-acre site owned by the state, after six contenders responded to a request for qualifications.
15.ĭAGS previously said it anticipated issuing the request for proposals by the end of this year, but was mum on a potential construction timeline given uncertainty after moves earlier this year that included reducing state funding and splitting redevelopment of 73 acres of land surrounding the 25-acre stadium footprint into a separate project. The state Department of Accounting and General Services shared the timetable today as part of notifying three development teams that a request for stadium replacement proposals will be published Dec. Aloha Stadium could come down in early 2023, based on a new state expectation for having a private developer replace the largely condemned facility in Halawa with a smaller arena.
