Address Olani Street and Aliinui Drive, Kapolei, Hawaii 96734 TMK No TMK SHPD Historic Site Number 50-80-12-8158 Abstract The Lanikuhonua water tower is significant on the local level under criterion C as an example of a metal lattice tower, which is typical of its period in its design, materials, workmanship and methods of construction.  The water tower is the only tangible structure to remain from Kamokila Campbell's homesite, as her house and the cottage which stood on the grounds are no longer extant.  The tower stored water obtained from artesian wells and provided water pressure to operate running water in the house and on the grounds.  The water tower continued in operation until the early 1960s, when it was supplanted by the City and County's city water system.

Address 352 Auwaiolimu Street, Honolulu, HI 96813 TMK (1) 2-2-014:005, :006 SHPD Historic Site Number 80-14-9042 Abstract Uluhaimalama is now set in an urban neighborhood composed of medium to high density single family and multi-unit housing.

The lots have remarkably remained intact more than 100 years after the function of the garden was changed to a cemetery. Uluhaimalama is significant in Hawaiian and United States history as a garden-cemetery for its associations relating to the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom in 1893 and for its association with, its former owner, Queen Liliuokalani. Uluhaimalama was one source of flowers delivered to the Queen during her imprisonment at Iolani Palace and her confinement at her home Washington Place after the government of the Hawaiian Kingdom was seized.
