About Front Street

Front Street runs along the waterfront through the Lahaina Historic District, a National Historic Landmark for its past as a whaling center and Hawaiian capital. The 2023 wildfire destroyed much of the district, including the Baldwin House and Pioneer Inn. The stretch from Papalaua Street to Shaw Street reopened in August 2026 with a repaired seawall and new sidewalks, and more than a dozen businesses are returning. Expect construction fencing, and stay out of fenced areas and private property.
