History
Washington Place was built by Captain John Dominis near ‘Iolani Palace in Honolulu on the island of O‘ahu. The two and a half story Greek Revival home constructed between 1844 and 1847, has lower level coral stone walls, columns circling the house, verandas, Tuscan columns, fanlight and sidelight entrance, Georgian floor plan, wood frame upper floor, and hipped roof.
Washington Place is significant for its association with the changing role of the United States in the world community and as the residence of the last ruling monarch of Hawai‘i, Queen Lili‘uokalani.
From 1919 to 2002, it continued to serve as the executive mansion for the territorial governors (1919-1959) and the state governors after Hawai‘i became the 50th State of the United States of America.
Washington Place was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973 and designated a National Historic Landmark in 2007.
