YWCA Building, Mediterranean Revival clubhouse in downtown Honolulu, US.
The YWCA Building features two connected units with a central loggia, incorporating open-air corridors, a swimming pool, and a spacious courtyard.
Julia Morgan designed this structure in 1926 after a successful fundraising campaign that collected $351,350 for construction on the former Laniakea Tract.
The Elizabeth Fuller Memorial Hall within the building commemorates a charter member of the Hawaiian Girls Club who dedicated her life to community service.
The facility at 1040 Richards Street operates Monday through Friday from 6:30 AM to 6:00 PM, offering spaces for events and community programs.
The building's name, Laniākea, translates to 'open skies' in Hawaiian, reflecting both its architectural design and its mission of advancing women's opportunities.
