Building Analysis - Pinnacle Honolulu: Building and Site Features
Completed in 2007, The Pinnacle Honolulu is a 36 story concrete and steel residential tower. This tall and narrow boutique building has a small footprint on the corner of Beretania and Bishop Streets. The location is very central downtown and only a block away from the state capitol. The Pinnacle Honolulu caters to people looking for more privacy and space than a typical high rise development. The most unique feature of the building is the small footprint and layout. There are no more than two units per floor, yet the building is over 300’ tall.
Common Areas for Residents
The secured street level lobby has pedestrian access to both Bishop and Beretania Streets. The lobby is modern and elegant with glass and granite walls plush seating and dark wood accents. The 9th floor is dedicated to amenities. There is a small pool, hot tub, exercise room, sauna, spa treatment rooms, billiards room, shuffleboard court, conference rooms, dining area and a kitchen /prep room.
Private Condo Features
Ranging in size from 1,545 square feet (half-floor) to 3,106 square feet (full-floor), the spacious Pinnacle residences feature custom gourmet kitchens with cherry hardwood cabinets, granite countertops and stainless steel Viking appliances. Livings rooms have ten-foot-high ceilings and wide insulated glass window walls with panoramic views. Because the first residential unit is 88 feet above ground level, residences command panoramic views of the city, mountains and ocean.
A unique feature of The Pinnacle is the elevator core. It is located in the center of the building, with two elevators opening into a private foyer in each half-floor residence. This private entrance, lacking a vestibule or hallway, enhances the ambience of each residence.
