You must mean the Outrigger Apartments, pretty much across from the Kona Kai Apts, in the BOT on page 15. Those "infra-red" photographs were taken when the Tiki was still purposely grown over with greenery: The manager told me proudly that they had gotten rid of all their Tikis because they would "date" the place, but this one was structural and could not be removed.

Those are Jeff Berry's hands uncovering the one eye under the jungle growth. The place has nice flat A-frame architecture, no other Tikis left, but interesting bamboo details, an A-frame pool house and an A-frame mail box unit.

P.S.: If you mean by "stufff" brochures and other paper ephemera...no. I always ask, especially if they have the original architectural rendering, that would be the PRIZE....but mostly with no results, because the owners are living somewhere far away, don't wanna be bothered, and think I'm crazy.
