description

Summary

Significance: The Hospital Point neighborhood was built in association with the development of the naval hospital at Pearl Harbor and the adjacent Radio Station, the navy's first radio installation in Pearl Harbor. Though this housing area is small, there is an interesting variety of housing styles represented. These various styles reflect the sporadic development of this area over a thirty-year period. Despite the use of different styles, that were common to each building's particular period, there is a feeling of a unified neighborhood through the use of common materials and similar details.
