Peter Hsi came from Shanghai, China to study architecture at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute and received a Masters in Architecture from the University of Michigan. He worked for nine years in Detroit prior to moving to Honolulu in 1962 to open his own office, which he operated until 2000. Some of his works include the C.Q.
