History:

However, by the mid-1800's, Kaka'ako was densely populated by Hawaiians. As the area became more commercialized and as more residential structures were built, the area became quite diverse - Japanese, Portuguese, Filipino, Puerto Rican and Chinese families and businesses coexisted. The people of Kaka'ako shared a special bond -- we were all poor! However, as kids, we weren't aware of it because we were all the same. Kaka'ako was separated by various "camps," these camps were determined by landlords. People moved freely from camp to camp. What was the name of the camp where we are spending time?

History:
"Kaka'ako" means dull or slow, which befitted the lifestyle of its original inhabitants. The Kaka'ako district started out as coastal swamplands, from the developing Waikiki area to downtown Honolulu. The area was used chiefly, under the rule of King Kamehameha I, for fishing, salt production, canoe landings, and cleansing and religious practices. Just a sprinkling of Hawaiians settled there.
However, by the mid-1800's, Kaka'ako was densely populated by Hawaiians. As the area became more commercialized and as more residential structures were built, the area became quite diverse - Japanese, Portuguese, Filipino, Puerto Rican and Chinese families and businesses coexisted. The people of Kaka'ako shared a special bond -- we were all poor! However, as kids, we weren't aware of it because we were all the same. Kaka'ako was separated by various "camps," these camps were determined by landlords. People moved freely from camp to camp. What was the name of the camp where we are spending time?
Mother Waldron Park: The only playground in Kaka'ako during the 1950's. The park was built in 1937 and includes "a historic one-story comfort station, two basketball courts, a volleyball court, an open field and benches along the historic boundary walls." However, in the 1950's, it also included a swing set, a seesaw, and jungle gym. The park was names after Margaret Waldron, a tough fourth-grade teacher at Pohukaina Elementary and playground director who was known for transforming the youth gangs of Kaka'ako into law-abiding citizens. She was fondly bestowed the title "MOther" Waldron because of the many programs that she organized for the youths.
