Union Way has concrete floors, wood walls, and windows in the ceiling.[4] The corridor connects the Ace Hotel to Powell's Books.[5] It was designed by Lever Architecture, which is based in Portland.[2] Union was converted from an early 20th-century brick garage[6] and replaced two nightclubs:[7] Aura and Red Cap Garage.[8] Union opened in 2013.[9]
Vendors have included All Good,[10] Danner, Spruce Apothecary, Steven Alan,[4] and Unless Collective,[11] Self Edge, and Will Leather Goods.[12] Shops have sold products ranging from candy to Japanese denim. Previously, the restaurant Boxer Ramen operated at Union Way's southern end.[13] The ramen restaurant Ikimono later operated in the same space.[5] Swee2o Drinks and Desserts has no seating and operates via take-out only.[14] Wailua Shave Ice operates in Union Way.[2]
