About this map

Kapolei and the surrounding Ewa Plain are depicted during a period of significant urban transition, where the legacy of the sugar industry meets modern development. The map shows a series of historic camps or "villages" including Tenney Village, Fernandez Village, and Renton Village, which speak to the area's plantation heritage. These residential clusters sit alongside modern infrastructure like Kalaeloa Airport (John Rodgers Field) and the Hawaii Raceway Park.

Coastal industrial and maritime activity is centered at Barbers Point Harbor and Malakole Harbor, while the northern terrain is defined by numerous drainage features such as Makakilo Gulch and Waimānalo Gulch. Geologic and cultural landmarks like the volcanic cinder cone Pu'ukapolei provide a vertical contrast to the residential expanses of 'Ewa Gentry and the shoreline reaches of Nimitz Beach and One'ula Beach.
