The Owners of the Anchor Cove Shopping Center on Kauai, is planning to expand the Lihue property and add a new oceanfront restaurant with outdoor seating, as well as a new market or convenience store.
Work on the expansion, which involves the property adjacent to the main shopping center that is currently being used as office and storage space, is scheduled to start by the end of the year, according to The Beall Corp., which handles leasing for the shopping center.
The work will involve converting the existing warehouse space to retail, replacing the roof and adding awnings to the storefronts, in addition to adding the restaurant space.
Anchor Cove, which is located on Kalapaki Beach and within walking distance of Nawiliwili Harbor, where cruise ships dock weekly, is currently anchored by JJ’s Broiler restaurant, ABC Stores, Maui Divers Jewelry and Crazy Shirts.
Lihue-based architect Marc Ventura is the architect on the project, but a general contractor hasn’t been chosen yet, Cory Beall, president of The Beall Corp., told Pacific Business News.
