Inspired by a new news article about land development by the LDS Church in Hawaii, I did a little more property searching. Unfortunately, Honolulu County doesn’t allow searching by name, so finding all the property of Hawaii Reserves, Inc. and Property Reserve, Inc. (two of the holding companies of the LDS Church) in Hawaii is virtually impossible. But I did find this shopping center owned by Property Reserve Inc. – valued at $9 million (go here and use parce ID#: 550140010000). It is also the headquarters for Hawaii Reserve, Inc., which also owns the water and waste water treatment plants in Laie, HI.
