The Cooper Apartments, also known as Seaside Apartments, is a historic apartment building located at 421–425 Seaside Avenue in Honolulu, Hawaii, U.S.. Constructed in 1939 during the Great Depression, the building is a distinguished example of a pre-war garden court apartment in Waikiki, embodying a transition between Streamline Moderne and the emerging tropical modern style, a fusion between Modern architecture and borrowing from Asian and South American vernacular architecture.[1] This architectural style is characterized by its clean lines and simple aesthetic, reflecting the economic austerity of the time.[2]
Designed by the Honolulu architectural firm of Dahl & Conrad, the Cooper Apartments exhibit characteristic features of tropical modern style blended with modest art deco-Asian decorative elements. The building's design includes white masonry walls, a low pitched hipped roof with overhanging eaves, large sliding windows with horizontal panes, and a distinctive stepped scalloped front wall. Additionally, the courtyard fireplace’s chimney and chimney cap contribute to its unique architectural identity.[3]
It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2017.[4]
