Kaʻākaukukui station (also known as Civic Center station) is a planned Skyline station in the Our Kakaʻako district in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi. It will be built as part of the third phase of the Skyline route, scheduled to open in 2031.[1]

The Hawaiian Station Name Working Group proposed Hawaiian names for the twelve rail stations on the eastern end of the rail system (stations in the Airport and City Center segments) in April 2019.[2][3] The name of this station, Kaʻākaukukui, means "the north/right light" and refers to coastal lands east of Waikahalulu, bordering Kukuluʻāeʻo.[4]
