The IBM Building, a mid-century icon designed by Vladimir Ossipoff, set a dramatic backdrop for the launch of Hawaii’s Most Endangered Historic Places of 2014 on November 20. About 60 people gathered to learn more about this year’s sites, and enjoy refreshments and conversation in the building’s beautiful outdoor courtyard. After sunset, guests were treated to a magnificent view of the trademark grille infused with heliotrope lighting against the night sky. Mahalo to David Striph and the Howard Hughes Corporation for hosting this exciting event!
