About this map

Waialua and Haleiwa anchor this coastal landscape on the North Shore of Oahu, where the agricultural infrastructure of the mid-20th century is meticulously documented. The irrigation network supporting the local sugar industry is visible through numerous flumes, ditches, and reservoirs like Opaeula Res and Wahiawa Res. Diverse cultural and community sites are recorded, including the Kawailoa Soto Mission and School and the Waialua Gakuen Sch, alongside several residential clusters such as Kawailoa Camp, Opaeula Camp 3, and Poamoho Camp.

Strategic military use is evident in the south at the Schofield Barracks Military Reservation, while the natural topography transitions from the coastal Kawailoa Beach to the steep gulches of the Kawailoa Forest Reserve. Waterways like the Anahulu River and Helemano Stream cut through the landscape, feeding into Waialua Bay. This map captures the region's balance between military presence, plantation-era labor settlements, and the emerging residential identity of Whitmore Village.
