Tikiyaki,

First of all, I have to agree that the glass float mobiles are amazing. That is what originally brought my attention to the postcards.

The way I am reading the history on this is that Pat's at Punaluu started as the restaurant and some beach cottages on a fairly decent piece of northshore property in the 1950s. The upscale condo development was built in the 1970's and the restaurant remained standing until about 8 years ago (1999?). The condo place is still called Pat's at Punaluu.

Here is a pic of the complex with what I am assuming is the restaurant on the right side of the photo.
