context_page_description: Downtown Honolulu is the current historic, economic, governmental, and central part of Honolulu—bounded by Nuʻuanu Stream to the west, Ward Avenue to the east, Vineyard Boulevard to the north, and Honolulu Harbor to the south—situated within the City of Honolulu. Both modern and historic buildings and complexes, many of the latter declared National Historic Landmarks on the National Register of Historic Places, are located in the area.
context_section_description: Honolulu's waterfront area centers on Aloha Tower, which was once the tallest building in Hawaiʻi and where cruise ships would dock before the advent of air travel between Hawaiʻi and the U.S. Mainland.  Recently, cruise ships between the Hawaiian Islands now dock at Honolulu Harbor.  Buildings in this area include:
  Aloha Tower
  Falls of Clyde
  Hawaiʻi Maritime Center
  Honolulu Foreign Trade Zone
