Annual
Recognition Awards
Malama o Manoa
recently instituted a new program for recognizing and celebrating Manoa
homes which typify many of the cherished characteristics and features
which make our Manoa Valley special. These annual Recognition
Awards are meant to identify and reward architectural and other
property-related “gifts” to the Manoa community in four categories:
Six Manoa families were honored in 2004, the first year of the annual award: three homes for restoration, two homes for landscaping/walls and one new home for its traditional style. The awards were presented on Wednesday October 13th at the Malama o Manoa Annual Membership Meeting held at Manoa Gardens off the Kahaloa Drive entrance to the Manoa Regional Park.
The 6 awards for 2004 were:
1. 2317 Armstrong Street Catherine Conrad "for restoring the 1928 Tavares residence"
2. 2536 Manoa Road Cindy & Alan Dorflinger "for landscape with hibiscus and lavarock wall terraces"
