STRUCTURE: Building 281. (104-A?)
LOCATION: 231 Puahi Street
USE: Residence
SIZE: Approx. 800 sq. ft. OWNERSHIP: State
DATE OF STRUCTURE: Unknown

DESCRIPTION: The structure is a one-story building of single wall construction, with a stone and concrete pad and post foundation. The structure has a hip roof with a gablet for ventilation. The roof of the rectangular building is finished with composition shingles. The wood frames of the double-hung windows project several inches from the exterior wall. A broken girt encircles the exterior of the structure. A wood porch at the west side of the structure, sheltered by an overhanging extension of the roof, provides access to the front porch. The structure is occupied and in fair condition. The building is infested with termites, so that some board replacement will be necessary. Old roofing materials should be removed when the structure is re-roofed. Vegetation should be cleared from the base of the structure. The building should be fumigated and painted.

SIGNIFICANCE: Date of the structure is listed as 1931 in the 'building files at Kalaupapa. The structure is not similar to other Kalaupapa buildings, and could have been one of the buildings moved from the Baldwin home located near the rock crusher. Further historic research is warranted; minimal architectural significance
