Big changes on the Big Island

"Super Active", that's Scientific!

Thanks for this. I'm planning a Big Island trip in July.

Big island is Shaped like the SHAKA 🤙 Hawaiian islands represent the Chakra's/ Shaka's Aloha from ReignBro

Hope they get that done quickly, the next time it erupts at the summit again they'll need the parking spaces ( and then some)

Seems odd they would be doing this non essential project now when you would think every construction worker in Hawaii would be needed to rebuild Lahaina.

[@violetviolet888]

@douggarson50: It's never a good idea to *rush* into rebuilding after a catastrophic event. The fact is that the FIRST step is clearing, cleaning, and properly disposing of toxic debris which will take a year or two even from this date. Rebuilding Lahaina will take 10 to 20 years. The reality is that with time, thoughtful consideration, and the collaboration of multiple stakeholders, it can be rebuilt into something better than it was before. There is no lack of construction workers regardless-don't worry.

@@violetviolet888 I understand there is a lack of construction workers or companies--but that may just be Maui. If you are talking about interisland workers, look to Oahu to take up the slack. Just have to figure out how to house the workers. Lahaina needs a "foreign aid bill". Let's rebuild Lahaina before other countries. The challenges are unprecedented, even more than New Orleans (where some have never recovered).

Too many people working on one project is always a bad idea. Especially since so many steps in construction requires inspections. So you end up with people not able to work since there's only so many inspectors, and people who process permits. It goes from a rush of work with everyone getting in each other's way to hurry up and wait. Not to mention the tons of paperwork coming and going from all the various companies. Oh and anything to do with insurance crawls at a snails pace. Quality control becomes an issue and you end up with a bad product. I've worked on a lot of minor and major projects. If you want things done right, being able to control the process is key. That's just not possible with tons of crews gang tackling the situation. Look at d r homes, they rush to build subdivisions and all their homes suck.

What a debbie downer maybe its no problem, jeez!

[@barbaratardy9788]

Both will be done. Thankfully good things are happening here on Mother Earth. New Orleans planted hundreds of Cypress trees that are growing to combat floods and cool the city. I truly believe we are at the dawning of the age of Aquarius and that evil is weakening it’s grip.

The Jagger Museum should be a historic site, I can't even find a single photo of its construction. Only old pics of The Jagger Museum are from late 1800s or early 1900s with people in large groups all in suits and dresses. It looks incredibly old and the stone foundation going to the ceiling in random sections indicates it was built on an older structure (same style blocks as many remnants of Hawaiin structures).

[@AuRowe]

So the official story is it was constructed in 1927. The photo of it from 1927 looks like its already AGED. WTF? The damage is just an excuse to destroy more history for his story

[@pcatful]

@@AuRowe You can see it is newer construction than that. It is just going to be a wreck and end up debris in the caldera. An "excuse"? Such vitriol.

[@stephenk.5839]

Those demolition and removal projects should not take all that long (two years), especially if there is adequate equipment involved. We already know that any federal or state government project will be deliberately dragged out to justify the excessive money cost.

[@greghelton4668]

It takes two months to repave a 800square foot parking lot in Hawaii. I think gravity here is stronger than the rest of the world because I saw this done in LA in one day.

[@Godckr1]

pave paradise and put up a parking lot and golf course 🌋 ⛳️

[@MowgleeB]

Uh oh, we just received a bunch of fed money. I wonder what they are going to get our representatives to do to us now?
