Abstract
Built in 1928, the Martin J. & Mary Condon Residence is significant under Criterion C as a bungalow style house built in the 1920s. The house sits on a lava rock and post and pier foundation. It differs from the typical bungalow by its use of clipped gable roofs, both on the main body of the house and its two projecting porches. Other unusual features include the placement of the “front” and “rear” porches adjacent to one another and the orientation of the house with its façade facing the side of the lot rather than the street. The use of Tuscan columns is also uncommon for the style. Elements typical of the style include the projecting porches with front facing clipped gable roofs, use of lava rock in the foundation and the roof’s open, overhanging eaves with exposed rafter tails. The flowing living-dining room space on the interior is also associated with the bungalow style in Hawai‘i.
