Lahaina is unique in its history, and its appeal relates directly to that history, including the original buildings. It should be reproduced, not just replaced. This should not be a project for developers outside of Hawaii or Maui. The state has the local talent — Hawaiians who would bring true aloha back to Lahaina, its businesses and its people. It is owed to the people. The culture is pure and deep. Protect it!
