High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Albert Spencer Wilcox Building, was originally a library and then converted to the Kaua‘i Museum, which displays exhibits on the history of the island of Kaua‘i in Hawaii. In April 1954 a committee started raising funds for a museum to be built next to the library. Juliet Rice Wichman (1901–1987) was chair of the committee. A granddaughter of businessman and politician William Hyde Rice, she had married Frederick Warren Wichman after the death of her first husband Holbrook M. Goodale. The new building was designed by architect Kenneth Roehrig and named for Rice. Wichman became the museum's first director, and would later co-found the National Tropical Botanical Garden and donate land to become the Limahuli Garden and Preserve to the garden.
