They tore down Thomas Magnum's place of residence for this.

So much for global warming and water levels rising. If people who are claiming "climate change" continue to build on ocean front property, I don't believe we have much to worry about.

Three homes planned for Obama friends' oceanfront Hawaii estate


By Janis L. Magin – Real Estate Editor, Pacific Business News

Three houses with building permits valued at more than $5 million are planned for an oceanfront Hawaii estate owned by associates of former President Barack Obama, a property once known as the home of Tom Selleck’s “Magnum, P.I.” character in the 1980s.

The former house on the Waimanalo estate, which Anderson’s family built in 1933 and which was known as “Robin’s Nest” in the first “Magnum, P.I.” series on CBS, was demolished last year.

Since then, the land has been subdivided into two parcels — an “east lot” of 1.65 acres and a “west lot” of 1.34 acres.

The Obamas, meanwhile, are reportedly buying a 29-acre waterfront estate on Martha's Vineyard from Boston Celtics owner Wyc Grousbeck that is listed for $14.85 million with LandVest.
