Scope Of Work
Hála Café is the only restaurant located in Hydaburg, Alaska. In the Haida language, Hála means “to give a feast or host a social event.” The café has been doing exactly that since it opened its doors in July 2019.

Like many Tribes in Alaska, Hydaburg is remote and accessible only by boat or small plane. The creation of a café is especially important since there are no other social gathering places in the community. North Star Construction is very proud to be a part of this project.
North Star Construction worked with Hydaburg Cafe Association, Jon Wunrow Program Manager for the Tribe, and MRV architects on the Design/Build project to meet the community's needs and demands for an infrastructure to support Cultural Tourism. The Hydaburg Cafe/Laundrette project was a small but technical building project that was remotely located. NSC met the many challenges of staying under budget and on time by utilizing the local workforce and working closely with both architects and the program manager.
