Happy New Year 2007!

Pool Update

Progress on Nauru Tower’s fifth floor pool remains steady. As we look down the home stretch, eagerness for a mid-March tan makes us truly appreciate Hawaiian winters. With the completion of the pool deck stones, lighting, and the final moves towards waterproofing and retiling, we are all crossing our fingers for sunny skies to help us continue our advancement. Here at the Nauru Tower, we are truly grateful for your patience and understanding throughout this entire process and are working hard to ensure only the best. On a side note, our resident turtles wait in the wings, anxious for their return!

Window Cleaning

The windows look impeccable at Nauru Tower! If you have noticed, we have hired a new company, World Wide Window Cleaning, to service our windows in the building. Along with their impressive eight-man drops giving rise to increased efficiency, quality, and safety, World Wide Window Cleaning is also responsible for all our neighboring buildings. Upon their completion last week, we have received numerous positive comments on their outstanding work.

If there are any concerns with caulking or window gaskets, or if you would like to schedule additional appointments, please notify the resident manager at 592-1200.

President’s Corner

After 15 years on the Board of Directors of Nauru Tower, most of that time as President, I have decided it is time for a change and I am retiring on March 1, 2007. There are many things I want to do with my time, including doing more traveling, and with the Annual Meeting coming up on March 13 I feel it is time to pass the torch to others. Nauru Tower continues to be one of the premier buildings in Honolulu and I leave the Board with the confidence that it will maintain this reputation. The Association is in good financial condition, has an excellent Resident Manager in Weylin Hokutan, has a wonderful and dedicated staff, and a Board and owners who want the best for Nauru Tower. I would not want to live anywhere else. I hope you will consider serving on the Board to give the Association the benefit of the variety of talents and experiences possessed by our owners. My thanks to everyone for making Nauru Tower a great building. Aloha.

John Breinich

On behalf of our management and staff, we would like to thank John for his years of commitment to the Board and its Association. You have been instrumental in maintaining the Quality of Life here at the Nauru Tower, and we will always continue to seek your guidance.
