description

Summary

Significance: Facility Nos. 201, 202, and 203 are associated with the establishment of the Pearl Harbor Naval Base, and with the history of the Marines in Hawaii. They were some of the first quarters built at Pearl Harbor. They are in a row with one other building, a duplex officers' quarters (Facility No. 204); the 4 residential buildings form a clearly definable, intact, and cohesive architectural and landscaping zone. Facility No. 201 also is significant for its association with notable Marine Commanding Officers who have lived there. These 3 quarters, as well as the Marine Barracks (Facility No. 221), were designed by a prominent east-coast architect, Jules Henri de Sibour. These houses represent the work of a master and embody the distinctive characteristics of a period and type of construction. Facility Nos. 201, 202, and 203 are early examples of reinforced-concrete residential structures. These houses and the duplex in this group are the only poured-in-place concrete family housing in Pearl Harbor. They are contributing elements to the Pearl harbor National Historic Landmark.
