Pineapple state Lanai - Hawaii

Formally known as the "pineapple state," Lanai was once the largest single pineapple plantation in the world. In 1924 Lana'i City was conceived by the Dole Pineapple company. It was a model town, incorporating all of the social necessities needed for pineapple production. In the early 1980s, the industry began to crash and the island turned to tourism. Luxury resorts were added as well as championship golf courses. With time and progress, Lanai City was left intact as a rural and rustic town.
