Added a few pictures. Not sure if that justifies removing the photo request.Esb 05:16, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

There is a picture of Iolani palace on the Iolani palace page. Could be used here (under Renaissance) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.171.10.147 (talk) 00:39, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

Norman Lacayo
On the Wikipedia page Hawaiian Architecture it says, "Perhaps Norman Lacayo was the most influential architect of the late-20th century in downtown Honolulu. He was the architect for the iconic building, Harbor Court, the anchor of the redevelopment of the downtown waterfront. Harbor Court is a multi-use building with restaurants in the lower floors and a split residential/office tower. No other building in Honolulu captures the romantic spirit of Hawaiʻi. The stepping of the residential tower and the articulation of the office wing create a dynamic similar to the steep volcanic mountain range that borders the city. Although many of his residential towers are distributed throughout Honolulu, most are located along the Nuʻuanu corridor." Norman Lacayo was one of the most influential architects in Honolulu and his buildings stand throughout the downtown area. He also did many specatacular residential houses in Hawaii and on the mainland. I would like to see his name l inked to his own page. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Llacayog3 (talk • contribs) 16:34, 4 November 2014 (UTC)

The focus on Norman Lacayo seems odd, as in no other section is a specific architect mentioned. The statement "No other building in Honolulu captures the romantic spirit of Hawai'i" surely needs additional citation to avoid the appearance of bias or personal opinion. Perhaps the user "Llacayog3" has a personal reason for promoting Lacayo's work?98.15.85.214 (talk) 22:36, 12 August 2020 (UTC)
