Hickam Field, NCO Housing Type 7, 210 Eleventh Street, Honolulu, Honolulu County, HI
Summary
Significance: The Type 7 housing units were part of the development of Hickam Air Force Base in the late 1930s and 1940s as the Army Air Corps shifted its operations from Ford Island and utilized the larger area available to them in the new location. The housing planned for the new Air Base was designed "in keeping with the Hawaiian atmosphere and traditions" with some buildings placed on curving streets and amidst extensive landscaping plants, all planned to give a leisurely feeling to the community.
