$12M Grant Funds New Chaminade Parking Rendering of the Ushijima Architectsdesigned parking structure being built by Albert C. Kobayashi, Inc. Monies from the Marianist Center of Hawaii is funding a new $11.8 million 228-stall parking structure to be used jointly by Chaminade University and St. Louis School. The new facility, for which general contractor Albert C. Kobayashi, Inc. began construction in early fall 2011, is expected to be completed by the end of this year. Ushijima Architects, Inc., is the architecture firm. A blessing with members of the Marianist organization was held in mid-September 2011. Besides the nearly $12 million for the parking structure, an additional $5.8 million will be used for storm drainage and other property improvements. Over a span of seven years, the Marianists have committed $17.6 million in support of the 52-acre shared campus. “The financial support received from the Marianist Center of Hawaii and the Marianist Province of the United States help ensure that our institutions can continue to educate our students with excellence,” says Bro. Bernard Ploeger, SM, Ph.D., Chaminade University president. “We are filled with gratitude at their generosity and their confidence in us.” Members of the Marianist Center of Hawaii examine a sample of the pre-fabricated concrete slabs that will be used for the parking structure.
