1350 Ala Moana was built in 1968 as a statement piece; it was envisioned as the grand residential luxury high rise of Hawaii, the first and best of its era. Designed by the most famous 20th century Asian American architect and engineer, Minoru Yamasaki and Alfred Yee, it represented cutting edge artistic and structural mid-century vision. Its classic design and famed artist works of Madge Tennent and Tony Luquete, 1350 remains statuesque to this day. 1350 stands as a proud testament to his work and an architectural jewel in the heart of Honolulu.

The brilliance of these two mid-century Asian American pioneers created a building that has motivated its stewards to focus on preserving not only its place as a leader amongst Honolulu's luxury condominiums, but also its strength and its safety. Owners continue to dedicated themselves to the preservation of this important Honolulu icon.
