1965 Map of Pahoa North

About this map

The Kahuwa I Lava Flow dominates the southeastern terrain of this Puna District survey, illustrating the volcanic nature of the landscape near Pahoa Airstrip. Along the coast, Honolulu Landing and Kaloli Point mark the interface with the Pacific Ocean, while inland, a grid of residential and agricultural divisions defines the era's growth. The map details the Keonepoko Homesteads and Nanawale Homesteads, showing a burgeoning network of roads such as Hawaiian Blvd and Seadrift Rd north of the Nanawale Forest Reserve. Historical sites are carefully noted, including Makuu (Site) near the shore and the National Guard Reservation. This documentation provides a clear look at land tenure and subdivision patterns before significant volcanic events altered the local geography.
