Hundreds of houses, sites, jobs, monuments, and people were torn/broken from the Lahaina fires last August.
I feel that creating the exact building structures will not create the same feelings that the Old Lahaina town did for everyone, especially for people who lived there. However, I am hoping that replicating the previous monuments, stores, and scenaries will attract visitors from around the world once again as it shows what the Old Lahaina town used to look like. Feelings of distress may arise if locals realize that historic areas of Lahaina were not even attempted to be rebuilt as well.
