GGP made its debut in Hawaii s retail real estate market in 1987 when the owners of Ala Moana Center hired General Growth Management to manage the property. Twelve years later, GGP acquired the center and subsequently has completed several significant redevelopment and expansion projects that have transformed the property into what is today the largest outdoor shopping mall in the Significant redevelopment and expansion projects in recent years have transformed Ala Moana Center into the world s largest outdoor shopping mall. world, comprising 2.3 million square feet of retail space and some 290 stores and restaurants.

Sustainability is an integral component of GGP s long-term success, and the company strives to incorporate sustainable practices into its development activities. During its recent expansion of Ala Moana Center, the company used a wide range of environmentally friendly materials and a construction waste management team that diverted 75% of all metals, wood, concrete, asphalt and masonry from Oahu s waste stream. The project also incorporated architectural elements that reduced heating and cooling costs, optimized energy efficiency and water usage, and enhanced the visitor experience by adding native trees and plants and shade structures to cool the concourse without impeding air flow.

6 HOLO PONO AWARD LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT BILL WILSON Ford Island Bridge, completed in 1998, was the first significant design-build project in the state. When completed in 2012, Disney s AulaniResort was the largest single project built in the state. FORMER CHAIRMAN AND PRESIDENT, HAWAIIAN DREDGING CONSTRUCTION COMPANY BILL WILSON HAS BEEN A FAMILIAR NAME in Hawaii s construction industry for more than four decades. He arrived in the Islands in 1974 having landed a management position at Dillingham Corporation fresh out of graduate school at Northwestern University, where he earned an MBA after completing a bachelor s degree in civil engineering. He and his wife, Gale, who was born and raised in Hawaii, met as undergraduates at Northwestern and married during his first year in graduate school, so he interviewed with several Hawaii-based firms as well as mainland firms. He decided Dillingham Corp. offered the best opportunity: a large diversified company with activities in energy, maritime, real estate development and construction and operations throughout the United States and a number of foreign countries. Wilson spent the next 17 years with Dillingham Corp. and three of its subsidiaries Hawaiian Bitumuls & Paving, Hawaiian Dredging Construction Company and California-based Dillingham Construction Corporation where he served as vice president of finance and chief financial officer for all three companies as well as controller for Dillingham Corp. He returned to Honolulu in 1991 as president of Hawaiian Bitumuls & Paving and then was named president of Hawaiian Dredging in He served as chairman of the company from 2014 until recently being named senior advisor. Under Wilson s leadership the company has maintained its historical and integral role in the development of Hawaii s economy and infrastructure by growing in size, sophistication and capabilities. Today, Hawaiian Dredging is Hawaii s oldest, largest and most diversified general contractor with countless projects spanning five divisions: Building, Commercial, Heavy, Power & Industrial, and Waterfront & Foundation. Revenue in 2016 was $700 million. While setting high standards for excellence at Hawaiian Dredging, Wilson also has demonstrated his industry leadership through his involvement in professional organizations. He is a director and past president of the General Contractors Association of Hawaii, life governor of the Associated General Contractors of America and a trustee of Pacific Resource Partnership. Several charitable organizations also have been the beneficiaries of Wilson s business acumen and commitment his community. NAIOP Hawaii invited him to share insights about his career. Hawaiian Dredging Q: has worked on many significant projects under your leadership. What are some of the highlights for you? BW: Hawaiian Dredging has completed several noteworthy projects that make me especially proud and reflect the company s diverse portfolio and expertise: Disney s Aulani Resort was the largest single project built in the state, and it created jobs for 1,000 construction workers during a period of economic recession. The Ford Island Bridge was the first significant design-build project in the state. HECO s Campbell Industrial Park power plant is the largest bio-diesel generation plant in the United States. Just last fall we completed the 801 South Street AULANI PHOTO BY ED GROSS / THE IMAGE GROUP, LLC. project comprising 1,045 affordable housing units built without government subsidy. Currently, the company is building a new consolidated rental car facility at Kahului Airport for the state Department of Transportation. It is the state s largest construction contract ever. What are the factors Q: you feel have contributed to the company s growth and success? BW: First and foremost: the people of Hawaiian Dredging, including our 1,000 current employees and the thousands more who have worked with our company through the years. All those parties committed to every project we build owners, designers, engineers, subcontractors, material suppliers, service providers, governmental authorities and labor unions also have been essential to our success. You have been active Q: in several community organizations. Which of them have been particularly meaningful for you, and why? BW: I have been fortunate to serve on the boards of two nonprofits that are vital to our community. The Waianae Coast Comprehensive Health Center provides health care services for residents of the Leeward Coast, many of whom work in the construction industry, including Hawaiian Dredging. The American Red Cross Hawaii Chapter provides support to everyone affected by natural disasters, without any government subsidy. Any final comments or Q: observations you would like to share about your years with Hawaiian Dredging? BW: I am deeply grateful for the opportunities afforded me to make contributions across our state to improve the quality of life for all. 10 // NAIOP HAWAII

7 OUTSTANDING SERVICE AWARD RICK BLANGIARDI GENERAL MANAGER, HAWAII NEWS NOW & DENNIS FRANCIS PRESIDENT, HONOLULU STAR-ADVERTISER REPORTERS COMPETE. NEWS ORGANIZATIONS COMPETE. But on the issue of homelessness in paradise possibly the most complex, entrenched and sprawling story of our time Hawaii News Now and the Honolulu Star-Advertiser decided the only way to impact the problem was to team up. The Homeless in Hawaii Project was a dramatic expansion of their previous collaborations, which had included a handful of jointly released projects, such as the future of Honolulu s Aloha Stadium and the pros and cons of electric vehicles. The idea of applying the partnership to homelessness crystalized in early summer 2015, as the problem had become a full-blown crisis. Hawaii was identified as the state with the highest population of homeless residents (per capita) in the country. Mentally ill and drugaddicted vagrants were offending tourists. An increasing number of families free to travel from Pacific nations in the Compact of Free Association established their own camps. For years, coverage of homelessness had focused on the threat to tourism. It was also constrained by the conventional editorial view that viewers and readers aren t attracted to stories about homeless people. That gave cover to politicians who didn t feel public pressure to make the expensive investment necessary for a long-term solution dealing with long-neglected social and mental health services, affordable housing and the cost of living. Rick Blangiardi, general manager of Hawaii News Now, and Dennis Francis, president and publisher of the Honolulu Star-Advertiser, decided the issue needed to be placed at the top of the news agenda and would be the major focus of their journalistic partnership. The mission of the public service partnership was extensively discussed and defined based on foundational journalistic values: Shed light on the current conditions and challenges posed by homelessness; investigate root causes and analyze the potential solutions; hold accountable government and responsible agencies for their performance. The campaign has included among its tactics: Hundreds of stories and investigative reports A joint poll specific to homelessness that found unprecedented levels of public engagement on the issue and high discontent with the response of government officials Travel to the U.S. Mainland and multiple islands to investigate conditions elsewhere and compare to Honolulu s problem Aggressive editorial positions Co-branding of newspaper, television and web platforms with all homeless stories shared on special sections of both websites as well as social service and government contact information for people needing help An end-of-year Hawaii News Now web video special showing the most powerful and impactful stories and summarizing the evolution of the issue in a comprehensive but accessible format Additionally, an independent, feature-length documentary, with seed funding from Hawaii News Now, exposed the unmeasured costs of homelessness and the difficulty in solving chronic homelessness. PHOTO BY BRUCE ASATO FOR HONOLULU STAR-ADVERTISER. The documentary aired 4 times in primetime on KGMB and KHNL in An aggressive promotional campaign by the Star-Advertiser and Hawaii News Now, together with a live streaming of the documentary, helped insure widespread viewing. The Homeless in Hawaii project yielded an unusually quick response and seems to have generated long-term reform. An immediate ramping up of government action included formation of a joint planning committee on homelessness, hosted weekly by the governor; an emergency declaration to enable the state to cut red tape to spend money and rearrange positions to speed up response; rare collaboration by city, state and law enforcement to create new shelter space, pass new rules and remove the Kakaako squatters village; adoption of a statewide strategic plan to address homelessness; and new, long-term budgetary commitments by the state and county to invest in rental housing and new transitional shelters, expand the state mental hospital, and better collaboration with nonprofit and faith-based agencies serving the poor and homeless. While this community service project has been satisfying and effective for the journalists involved, Blangiardi and Francis concede the problem has not been solved, nor did they expect it to be after only one year. With no fixed end date for the campaign, the partnership and the two news organizations individually are committed to continuing pressure on this issue to ensure that the solutions are adopted and sustained. Their reason to take on the issue in the first place was the recognition that the underlying causes of homelessness unaffordable housing, a high cost of living and neglected social and mental health programs have an impact on every family in Hawaii. Rick Blangiardi and Dennis Francis are leading a campaign to solve Hawaii s homeless crisis. CONGRATULATIONS BILL WILSON NAIOP LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD 12 // NAIOP HAWAII AWARDS // 13
