Hickam Field, Hickam Historic Housing, Honolulu, Honolulu County, HI
Summary
Significance: Hickam Field was developed when the Army Air Corps outgrew its Ford Island location. The lay-out of Hickam field is evocative of the Garden City Movement. This urban planning movement, popularized in the late 19th century, based the design of townships on the principal that each should be an independent garden city in the country, limited in size and including public parks and private gardens, and surrounded by a greenbelt.
