Oahu Publications Inc., publisher of the Honolulu Star-Advertiser, is launching a new publication called Metro on Wednesday. The free community newspaper will be distributed weekly to downtown Honolulu, Nuuanu, Kakaako, Manoa and McCully.

"As Honolulu evolves into a more urban place, Oahu Publications felt it necessary to develop a unique publication that caters to the emerging urban lifestyle while meeting the needs of this growing community of vibrant and young business professionals," said Dennis Francis, OPI president and Honolulu Star-Advertiser publisher. "Metro is the result of a mash-up of Oahu Publications’ connections to thousands of households through our wide array of media."

A total of 32,000 copies will be distributed each week to residences. Also, 8,000 copies will be available in racks at restaurants, bars and nightclubs.
