| 説明 | Built between 1925 and 1927, this Classical Revival-style school was designed by Emory & Webb, as well as Harry K. Stewart, on the site of Keoua Hale, a Second Empire-style palace constructed for Princess Ruth Keʻelikōlani in 1878, which was used as the home of Honolulu High School (now McKinley High School) from 1895-1907, when it moved to Thomas Square, and Central Grammar School from 1907 until 1925. The school features a concrete exterior with a central wing featuring a two-story ionic portico at the front entrance with a colonnade of six columns, doric pilasters, a large entablature around the roof over the colonnade, which is topped with a balustrade, with the architrave wrapping the entire front end of the building, helping to break up the tall exterior facade, with large and tall window openings on the exterior, which originally allowed ample natural light into the interior, with a large lobby and auditorium inside this wing, administrative offices, as well as other common areas for the school. Flanking the central building, and linked to it via breezeways with square doric columns and red tile roofs, are two two-story classroom wings with doric pilasters on the exteriors, cornices wrapping the base of the parapets, modern metal staircases to second-story doorways on the front and rear facades, and decorative surrounds at the first floor entryways on the front facades, with the classroom building east of the central wing being one room longer, extending further to the rear than the classroom building west of the central wing. At the rear of the central wing is a one-story addition with doric pilasters and a corrugated metal canopy, with a one-story modernist concrete frame and concrete block building to the rear of the original section of the school, and an additional one-story modernist concrete structure that sits at the eastern edge of the school grounds. The school, originally known as Central Grammar School, became known as Central Junior High School in 1927 upon the completion of the original section of the school, which was subsequently renamed Central Intermediate School in 1932. Later in the 20th Century, the school became Central Middle School, before being renamed Princess Ruth Keʻelikōlani Middle School in 2021, recognizing the important role Princess Ruth Keʻelikōlani played in the founding of the school. The school was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2004. |
