Construction has started on a 60-home community in Lahaina that burned down in the 2023 Maui wildfires, good news for families still waiting to return.

• A groundbreaking ceremony marked the start of rebuilding the site near Front Street.
• Six two-story buildings will go back up at their original size and layout.
• The new homes add fire-resistant roofing and landscaping to reduce future risk.
• It is one of the larger rebuilding efforts since the fire destroyed much of the town.

Outlook: Construction work will move ahead on the site, with more Lahaina rebuilding projects expected to follow.
