Monday, October 19, 2026 · City · GSM News

Honolulu is a city in Honolulu County, Hawaii (a consolidated city-county). The National Park Service (NPS) on Oct. 16 announced a new class of American World War II Heritage Cities, and Honolulu, Hawaii's capital, is among them. The designation honors communities that contributed significantly to the war effort and work to preserve and tell that history.

Also designated were South Charleston, South Carolina; Thomasville and Thomas County, Georgia; Weirton, West Virginia; St. Louis County, Missouri; Spokane and Spokane County, Washington; Fort McNair and Fort Myer in Washington, D.C.; La Porte County, Indiana; Lorain County, Ohio; and the State of Connecticut. The NPS said the next nomination round is expected to open in early 2027. (GSM, via the National Park Service)
