Address 3022 Kalakaua Ave, Honolulu HI 96815 TMK (1) 3-1-033:020 SHPD Historic Site Number 80-14-9773 Abstract The Egholm Residence was built in 1926 in the Diamond Head Terraces subdivision at the edge of Waikiki.  It is significant as one of the few examples of a small cottage in the Spanish Colonial Revival style popular in Hawaii in the 1920's and early 1930's.  The Spanish Colonial Revival style was thought to be suitable to Hawaii's semi-tropical climate, a climate similar to the Mediterranean.  The hipped red clay tile roof, stucco exterior and arcaded entrance are characteristic features of this style.  The Egholm Residence is further significant as an example of the work of notable architect and builder Carl William Winstedt.  Of the remaining known houses done by Winstedt, this house is the most intact.  The modest scale of this house is rare compared to the other palatial residences built in the Spanish Colonial Revival style during this time period in Hawaii.

Address 3004 Kiele Ave, Honolulu HI 96815 TMK (1) 3-1-033:035 SHPD Historic Site Number 80-14-9755 Nomination Form (PDF) Abstract The Ketchum Residence is a Craftsman-style bungalow built in 1931 in the Diamond Head residential area of Honolulu, Hawai'i. It is significant for its architecture as an example of a Craftsman inspired house in Hawaii. The naturally-stained board and batten walls and use of heavy timbering are character-defining elements of the building's design. Also, the stepped facade breaks up the symmetry of the facade and contributes to the dwelling’s dynamic tension. In addition to these typical craftsman hallmarks, the house features the "Hawaiian" style, double-pitched hipped roof, which was very popular in the Islands during the late 1920's and early 1930's. This further accentuated the horizontal sense of the house, another typical Craftsman characteristic. The screened lanai and exterior bathroom door further fix its location near the beach, where a number of houses from this period featured such doors for use by beach goers.

Address 3040 Hibiscus Drive, Honolulu HI 96815 TMK (1) 3-1-034:012 SHPD Historic Site Number 80-14-9754 Abstract The Richard M. Botley Residence was built in 1931 near Diamond Head in Honolulu.

Ingvorsen, came to the United States from Denmark.  He developed a number of smaller homes in the Diamond Head Terrace subdivision, and retained this property high on the slopes of Diamond Head for his family.  Originally, the Hibiscus Place land consisted of approximately 17,739 square feet but, the property was subdivided in the 1950's into three separate parcels.  The current owner acquired and reassembled two of the three parcels of land into a single property that now consists of 12,495 square feet.
