1928 Map of Kailua

USGS Topo · Published 1928

About this map

The coastal village of Kailua serves as the focal point for this survey of the Kona coast, a landscape defined by volcanic geology and agricultural homesteads. Inland, the terrain rises sharply toward the peak of Puu Hualalei, passing through extensive land divisions like the Honuaula Forest Reserve and the Kahaluu Forest Reserve. The map illustrates a complex system of homesteads, including Kalaoa 1 Homesteads and Kohanaike Homesteads, which reflect the territory's early 20th-century land management under Governor Wallace R. Farrington. Industrial footprints are visible at the Kona Mill and Sisal Mill, while the cultural landscape is marked by the Kuamoo Church and the ancient Ahu a umi Heiau. Transportation routes like Judd Road navigate the lava fields, connecting scattered settlements and remote sites such as the Sheep Station and Puu Lehua Ranch.
