Honolulu 1908

A L O H A From Honolulu!

Never forget that

feeling fantastic is a

massive magnet for

summoning more magic.

  Curtis Tyrone Jones

In 1907, Honolulu High School

was renamed for President William McKinley.

And in 1908 the school was moved to this 

new building facing Thomas Square.

Upon completion of a newer

(and current) facility

further towards Diamond Head on King St,

McKinley HS moved there in 1923.

This building became

Linekona Elementary School.

Linekona is Hawaiian For "Lincoln"

These were Territorial days, and the 

US Territorial government & resident

Americans solidified their cultural and

political connections to the USA.

This is an example of

Romanesque architecture,

Colonial Revival architecture,

Romanesque Revival architecture.

Interestingly, the apparent stone

face is actually cunningly worked

cement!

I waved to you outside

but then I realized it

was just one of those

inflatable parking lot gorillas.

The deeper thought is,

the taller it becomes.

All things find a purpose
or aren't.
