The outrigger apartments still keep the polynesian decor up from what I could see from over the gates. Don't know if there are anymore tikis inside the gates. This is the only picture that I took at the Outrigger.

Excellent urban archeology -- that area on Rosemead is an incredible tiki spot, anchored by Bahooka's.

Sadly, several of the outriggers are gone.
But some still remain.
A few of interior shots. I loved seeing these jade tiles.

Some historical background for the apartments:
 Breaking ground, April 1961
glorious half-page newspaper ad from Oct 1961 when they opened:
Too bad the picture is so dark, but I can see a hanging globe lamp and some extravagant outrigger beams that got sawn off later:
