)Actually it's Bishop Estate land. It's mostly used by the police for recreation (and was used for Lost filming too as Sam mentioned). Aerial photos show the building was built between 1971 and 1975, and 1975 is when the police started using the land. The building may be used by the police as a shelter house, like the kind of recreational house found in parks. Or it could be used for storage by the police / fire department, they seem to park firetrucks next to it (seen here). Or it may not be used at all anymore. It might not be in the best condition. This is all conjecture though.J.J. Walters wrote:- "Surfrider Club" (from "Wave Goodbye"). Any idea what this building is? It's in a completely isolated spot on the North Shore. I assume it's private property.
Rick Romer was nice enough to mention that the house was in Manoa, although I had a suspicion that there was a good chance it was in that valley. It feels like a Manoa / College Hills type home, and in the show there are glimpses of the ridges on either side of the house. Aside from that, it's just a bit of searching.J.J.

I'm not sure yet. Sometime in the future I'll name a date, and at that point I suggest you add three to six months.Sam wrote:Say..................When can we expect the release of 1.5.
It was be a trip if a Magnum fan went there, asked for a pickled egg, and they acted perfectly normal and fished one out of a nearby jar! It still wouldn't be quite the same though. 
I've honestly never seen that episode before, so I couldn't say. There ar many photos of the estate on the website, and it has a very distinct look, at least for Hawaii. It is Spanish Colonial Revival architecture which is quite uncommon in the islands. Further, the characteristic terracotta tile roof is black, which is even more unusual. I'm sure you could recognize it if you saw it.KMunroe wrote:I see on the MM! page for the estate, it's listed as appearing in an episode of CA called Island Angels. I'm looking through that episode right now, and (though I'm no expert) I'm not convinced that's it. But, it must be on the page for a reason.. know anything about this?
I may have been wrong about the "Island Angels" episode. I can't seem to find anything in my emails (or in this forum) about it. I can't even remember how or why it's there! Maybe I'm mixing it up with one of the other Hawaiian Angels episodes? "Waikiki Angels", "Angels of the Deep", "Hula Angels", "To See an Angel Die", perhaps? Do you recall seeing the Estate ("Pahonu") in any of these episodes?KMunroe wrote:Hey, thanks! That's actually one I've been looking for.
And funny you replied, since a question I wanted to ask was about Pahonu. I see on the MM! page for the estate, it's listed as appearing in an episode of CA called Island Angels. I'm looking through that episode right now, and (though I'm no expert) I'm not convinced that's it. But, it must be on the page for a reason.. know anything about this?
