Hawaii Five-O - Bust of Jack Lord at Kahala Mall

You can find a bust of Jack Lord who was best known for playing Steve McGarrett in the famous TV series Hawaii Five-O at the Kahala Mall in the residential neighborhood of Kahala on the Island of Oahu. Jack loved this part of town, owned a home here and many scenes were filmed in this area.

Mahalo to Anette from the Hawaii Five-O fan club (see comment below) who let us know that this bust is the the only 100% funded statute in the world! Click here for directions and pictures of the dedication ceremony back in 2004.

Thank you for displaying our statue. It is the only 100% internet funded statue in the world. Pictures of the dedication ceremony can be found on the fanclub site.
A funny story about filming. The casting director would wander town handing out cards to locals inviting them to be an extra on the show. Well, it seems that the same people were used over and over again. Lenny Freeman stood up on the set oe morning and yelled “If I see the doorman at the Kahala (Mandarin) in one more scene somebody is getting fired!”
