1956 Map of Lahaina

About this map

The agricultural and maritime character of West Maui is clearly delineated in this mid-century record of the Lahaina coastline. The landscape is defined by the sophisticated irrigation infrastructure required for sugar and pineapple production, featuring an intricate network of the Pipeline, Ditch, and Flume systems that draw water from mountain sources like Kahoma Stream to reservoirs including Wahikuli Reservoir. Coastal industrial hubs like Mala and the nearby Sugar Mill serve as the economic anchors for a series of worker settlements and neighborhoods, including Kelawea, Puunoa, and Lunaville.
