The Cooper Apartments, also known as Seaside Apartments, is a historic apartment building located at 421–425 Seaside Avenue in Honolulu, Hawaii, U.S.. Constructed in 1939 during the Great Depression, the building is a distinguished example of a pre-war garden court apartment in Waikiki, embodying a transition between Streamline Moderne and the emerging tropical modern style, a fusion between Modern architecture and borrowing from Asian and South American vernacular architecture. This architectural style is characterized by its clean lines and simple aesthetic, reflecting the economic austerity of the time.Designed by the Honolulu architectural firm of Dahl & Conrad, the Cooper Apartments exhibit characteristic features of tropical modern style blended with modest art deco-Asian decorative elements. The building's design includes white masonry walls, a low pitched hipped roof with overhanging eaves, large sliding windows with horizontal panes, and a distinctive stepped scalloped front wall. Additionally, the courtyard fireplace’s chimney and chimney cap contribute to its unique architectural identity.It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2017.
