HISTORIC HAWAI‘I FOUNDATION
Built in 1900, Architect Oliver G. Traphagen designed the first sewerage pumping station in Hawai‘i to address rapidly-growing Honolulu’s serious sanitation and disease problems at the turn of the century. The building, listed on both the National and State Registers of Historic Places, features large arched windows, a green tile roof, lava rock exterior and 76 foot stack.
