Abstract
The contributing buildings on the Sakata property are eligible for the Hawaii and National Registers of Historic Places a the State Level under Criteria A and C due to its continuous significance in small town commerce and its period architecture. Criterion A (History/Events): The Sakata property is historically important as it represents the development of small businesses outside the plantation hegemony. Criterion C (Architecture): The Sakata property is also important as it contains excellent examples of plantation era architecture. The Sakata Commercial Building is an early example of a building erected purely for business purposes, built right up to the front property line, on a concrete foundation; it features turn of the century design as a single story structure, of single vertical tongue and groove walls, and a false front with parapet.
