Abstract

Approved for Criterion A (Historical Events and Patterns) and Criterion C (Architecture and Engineering).  The Mary P. Bright House is a Contemporary Style/Mid-Century Modern residence and appears to be among the first examples of the style to be erected on Front Street during the post war period.  At the time of its construction in 1963, Front Street was still largely comprised of early twentieth century dwellings.  The house was built for Mary Bright and her husband James, a foreman at a local pineapple cannery.  It was part of a transition from rental housing provided by a plantation company to individual home ownership, and for modern style dwellings that were already being erected in Lahaina.  Mary Bright was a descendant of Hawai‘i’s ali‘i class and lived in the house until her death in 1987.
