Homeless Encampments Face Summer Demolition | Honolulu News

Fifteen homeless residents at Waianae Small Boat Harbor face imminent sweeps as the state prepares to demolish their encampments this summer—just as 140 others have already moved into permanent housing. With 30 still awaiting their studio homes by October 16th, officials are carefully phasing out structures, especially near fragile anchialine pools home to a rare red shrimp. Demolitions will avoid heavy machinery in sensitive zones, paving the way for future cultural and environmental education. This cleanup marks the end of a long chapter for the harbor, where rising funding is finally turning homelessness into permanent housing for many.
