I found this photo of Robin's nest, taken from an angle not seen very often.I'm not sure if I knew of the lanai's circled in blue.

Sorry Pahonu if they are included in your sketchup.I'm not able to access your model..I get a pop saying "This does not appear to be a sketchup model"

Found another episode of HFO in which the estate was used..Season 11."The Case Against Philip Christie"

Lt Tanaka also appeared in this episode and his real name was used for his character.

Wow, great find Sam. I never saw any pictures showing the back with the lanai's either. Are those pictures from HF-O also? I have been trying to catch more and more reruns of the original and angles and interior shots of The Estate (when used) we hadn't seen. I just watched one recently that had a shot from a helicopter landing on the grounds.............

Hi Steve.

I found the picture of the lanai's on Flickr.If you look closely you can see the junk,I was tempted to call it Robins Mess.The picture was taken from the ridge above the estate.

.There is this picture from Thomas on Islands that shows the back lanai but it's covered and I never gave it much thought.It appeared to be something on the roof.I haven't seen the helicopter episode yet...Go Vikings.

If you look at the largest size of the picture at least you can make out a worker at the side of the pickup truck amongst "Robin's Mess". Maybe our Lady Anderson is finally getting some much needed fixin' up done............

You have to unzip the .skp file first. The download includes a text file describing the model and the actual Google SketchUp file (.skp). You have to use the .skp file within Google SketcUp, not the bundled .zip file.

Here's the unzipped .skp file

Thanks for the info on the Season 11 Hawaii Five-0 episode! I believe that now makes twelve Anderson Estate appearances in Hawaii Five-0! :)

Nice job on both counts Sam. That's the first time I've seen both lanais. It looks like they've had the roof replaced too. I'm sad to see the darker color go. But I'm sure they are appreciating the new roof if the old one was leaking.

A while ago I found photos of the Estate from a similar angle. The following are all from the same album, but I'll link to each one because they're spread out:
one
two (dogzilla!)
three
four
five
six
seven

I kinda get the feeling that if I were to ever see Robin's Nest in real life that it would not seem as big as it does on the show...

BTW, Awesome images!

Notice the plasic slide and the swing set in the bottom picture. I wonder if the good Lady Anderson has relatives with children that come over to play............

Yeah, she's a spinster, no?

Great shots Sam! I have been looking for some shots like these of the rear of the estate. These must be older shots, no? Because in all the more recent photos, the foliage is so overgrown you can't see the lanais clearly. I have them on my model because they are shown in the property tax sketches, but will have to make some alterations to them and a couple of other things I can see now. I hope you get to see it. Thanks again!
