The shuttered retail complex Hawaiian Marketplace has been demolished to make way for a new 300,000-square-foot retail center on the east side of Las Vegas Boulevard, just south of Harmon Avenue.

New York City-based private investment firm Gindi Capital, which acquired the nearly 10-acre site in 2019 for $172 million, is planning to develop the retail project. At the time of the deal, Gindi said it was working with its design and development teams to “unveil plans for a new flagship retail, entertainment and dining experience.”

The project would cover 302,613 square feet and include retail, restaurants, supper clubs, service bars and outdoor entertainment space, according to documents submitted to Clark County.
