Help With Honolulu Vintage Homes?
January 23rd, 2009 categories: KU Realty
Those of you that have read my blog for a while know that I like Honolulu’s homes that have a vintage character. Whenever I am on the road and find a home that I like, I snap a picture and post it here. Too many times I see these beauties being torn down to make way for new “Mcmansions”. Maybe one day the photos you and I post will be a good record of Honolulu’s past architecture. Here’s your chance to help me, when you see a home that you think I could use in a post, just do the following.
1. Take a picture of it in the largest possible format. Cell phone photos are OK.
2. Note the address or street.
3. Email me the photo, address or street name to keahi@lava.net
4. Check my blog to see that it was posted.
Note that I reserve the right to post the ones I like and don’t take any offense if I don’t use it.

Today’s vintage home is in Manoa. Fresh paint and different accent colors could make this home very charming. Here is a little sarcasm, how do you like the blue recycling garbage can? Honolulu-ites now have 3 of them blue, green and grey. Funny that trash cans now litter our yards and streets.

Hi Keahi,
I really love this idea. What a great way to document the trends and transitions in architecture. I hope you get many submissions!
Also, do you mind if I add you to my blog roll?
Thanks, Gretchen
