- The Honolulu Courthouse, also known as simply the Court House or the Parliament House, and later known as the Old Courthouse, was a two-story building in Downtown Honolulu that served as the meeting location of the Hawaiian Kingdom's Legislature and Supreme Court between 1852 and 1874. It was also the site of the Legislature's election of William Lunalilo and David Kalākaua as king in 1873 and 1874, respectively. A riot that broke out following the election of Kalākaua caused significant damage to the building and its contents. The Legislature and Judiciary moved out of the Honolulu Courthouse in 1874 and the building was subsequently sold to H. Hackfeld and Company (later renamed Amfac), which used the building for office and warehouse space until it was demolished in 1968 to make room for a new office complex. (en)

- Justice in a grass house is as precious as justice in one of coral, but no one can fail to agree with me, that the latter with all its comforts and conveniences is greatly to be preferred, inasmuch as it tends to promote that dignity and propriety of manners so essential to secure a proper respect for the law and its administration. May this Hall ever be the temple of Justice—may its walls ever echo with the accents of truth—may its high roof ever look down upon us in the faithful discharge of our duties—and may the blessing of Him who builded the Heavens and whose throne is the fountain of all justice ever rest upon us.
