Abstract
Built in 1916, the Arthur Coyne House is significant on the local level under Criterion C as a good example of residence built in the American Colonial Revival style and reflects the choices of the new political elite in turn of the century Hawai‘i. Its asymmetrical façade sets it apart from the usually symmetrical examples of American Colonial Revival style house built in Mānoa. The architectural style chosen by Arthur Coyne for his residence reflects the new dominance of Americans after the annexation and the establishment of the Territory of Hawai‘i. The house contains a number of features that reflect its period of design. Its use of local vernacular materials, construction methods and workmanship are typical of houses built in the district in the mid-1910s.
