Park Commissioner Thurston was read: |
Honolulu, T. H, Sept. q, 1906

of Supervisors, County of Oahu.

side park has been constantly increas- |

lowed is attracting a large number OF |
people, especially women and children. |
there is no adequate accom- |
mediation for bathers, the old buildings |
on the premises not being designed for |
such purpose.
Feeling that. if the public are to |
receive the full benefit of the beach !
side park, bathing and other accom- |
mediation should be provided for them. |
the commission has been in consulta |
ton with your Committee on Roads |
and Parks and secured from the archi- |
tect, Mr. H. L. Kerr, prelimina y plans |
and estimates of the cost of construc-
ton of a bathing house with fifty |
rooms, twenty-five eacn for men and |
with shower baths and toilets |
attached, and also estimate of cost for |
the old building on the |
premises and arranging the same suit
able for rest and refresnment sta

They have also secured an estimate
Of the cost of making the bathing &C
one hundred rooms.
The said architects estimate for the
cost of rearranging, repairing and
