1954 Map of Paia
USGS Topo · Published 1956About this map
The sugar-driven economy of central Maui is on full display in this mid-1950s survey, characterized by a dense network of ethnic and company-assigned worker communities. Puunene and Paia serve as the primary hubs, with the landscape between them dominated by the Sugar Mill and an intricate system of numbered and named clusters like Japanese Village 1, Russian Village, and Alabama Village. This layout provides a clear visual record of the plantation era's social and industrial organization before later suburbanization changed the island's footprint.
