About National Register Listings
The National Register of Historic Places is the official list of the Nation’s historic places worthy of preservation. Authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Park Service’s National Register of Historic Places is part of a national program to coordinate and support public and private efforts to identify, evaluate, and protect America’s historic and archeological resources.
The Hawaiian Islands are some of the most isolated landmasses in the world, with the closest landmass being over 2,000 miles away. As a result, Hawaii has a unique flora and fauna, with many species that are found nowhere else in the world.
