S pecializing in resort communities, luxury homes, commercial construction and workforce housing, Armstrong Builders’ revenue rose two percent from $54.7 million in 2021 to $55.8 million in 2022, which lands the company at No. 21 in this year’s rankings. This indicates work remains steady for the general contractor, which assigns 76 percent of its projects to trades and crafts workers who finish each property with the details discriminat- ing clients expect. Case in point: Kohanaiki ‘Ohi Kai Phase 2 in the Kohanaiki private club community, a luxury resort just two miles south of Kona International Airport with sprawling ocean view estates, lavish homes with mauka views of the only Rees Jones golf course in Hawai‘i, plus a 67,000-square-foot clubhouse. “The market for luxury home builds remains strong and we anticipate 2023 will continue to be robust for the construction industry. We currently have multiple luxury home projects underway on O‘ahu, Maui and Hawai‘i [island], many of which will continue into 2024,” says James Keller, company president. “We’ll also

soon launch a new project on Kauai. The majority of our work comes through referrals, which is a testament to the caliber of projects and high- quality craftsmanship our team has delivered for nearly 50 years in Hawai‘i.” In May 2023, Armstrong received a 2023 Gold Nugget

Merit Award in the Best Multi-Family Housing Community category for its work at Makali‘i at Wailea. The development features 68 townhomes designed in Mid-Century Modern Hawaiian style and are spread across 17 acres overlooking Maui’s southeastern coast. Among its notable achievements for 2022, the company “completed a very significant residen- tial project” in Windward O‘ahu, but are with- holding details due to client privacy. Ongoing projects include La‘i Loa in Wailea, Maui (expected completion in 2024), Kohanaiki Hinahina Phase 2 (expected completion in 2024) and Kohanaiki Panana (completion date to be determined). – Paula Bender
