Walk down Mamane Street, the heart of Honokaa Town, and step back into the late 19th and early 20th century.

The commercial buildings have their emblematic false fronts and totan (corrugated iron) cladding. They contained, and still contain, mom-and-pop businesses that were founded upon personal relationships, required the labor of whole families, and provided for the education of the next generation.
