Headquarters Update - 333 Queen Street Renovation
Our New Headquarters
Hawaii State FCU will celebrate the opening of its Headquarters building located 333 Queen Street in Downtown Honolulu in June 2023. The approximately 70,000 square-foot office building and 80,000 square-foot adjacent parking garage underwent an extensive demolition and renovation which began in July 2021.
This new Headquarters building will allow the credit union to consolidate over 240 employees currently across multiple office locations and provide the space needed to allow for future growth. Building plans include a new branch on the first floor which will provide convenient access for members to our many financial services in the downtown and civic center of Honolulu. Designing our future Headquarters building will allow the credit union to continue to hire talented staff, and offer our employees a space to collaborate with one another utilizing innovation and technology.
Hawaii State FCU has selected local firms Nordic PCL Construction as general contractor and Hiarchy as architect for the building renovation.
The Headquarters Branch will open to members on August 21, 2023.

Fun Facts
By donating over four-thousand linear feet of lumber to Re-Use Hawaii we were able to recover these materials for reuse and divert them from Hawaii’s landfills.
By donating over 300 shelves, cabinets and fixtures, we reduced greenhouse gas emissions by an estimated 3.25 tons or the equivalent of emissions from 250 cars for one day.
To rewire every floor of our building, crews will install over 39,000 linear feet of conduit. That’s enough conduit to reach from downtown Honolulu to the airport.
To remodel our new Headquarters, crews will use over 100,000 pounds of steel. That’s about the weight of one and a half humpback whales.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, our plans currently include construction of a new full-service branch location on the ground floor of our building. As details become more finalized, we will be sure to keep our members updated.
