Abstract
The Kamekichi and Mika Kotake Store Building is eligible for the Hawai’i and National Registers of Historic Places at the State Level under Criteria A and C. Criterion A (History/Events): The Kotake Building is historically important as it represents the development of small businesses outside the plantation hegemony. Here, small “Mom and Pop” businesses and specialty services were developed and operated. Criteria C (Architecture): the Kotake Building retains its integrity and so is an excellent example of plantation era architecture. The Kotake Building is a structure erected purely for business purposes (it appears on the 1914 Sanborn Map).
