Stanford Carr, president of Stanford Carr Development, LLC, was named Developer of the Year by the Washington, D.C.-based nonprofit Smart Growth America.
Smart Growth America said it works to “create healthy communities with strong local businesses, schools and shops nearby, transportation options and jobs that pay well.”
Carr was nominated by the city’s Department of Planning and Permitting for his work on two affordable-housing projects in Kakaako: Halekauwila Place and Keauhou Place. Halekauwila Place is a recently completed 204-unit tower with studios and two- and three-bedroom units for people earning 60 percent of the area median income or less.
Keauhou Place is a 43-floor tower under construction on South Street between Pohukaina and Halekauwila streets. Of the 423 units, 88 are reserved for sale to families earning 140 percent of area median income.
