Sorry, I did not research anything about it, it was just a great example of word play on Bali Hai, and how the term was a buzzword at a certain time. I am just assuming that that neighbourhood got the name by a developer when Bali Hai was in everybody's vocabulary. But the houses do not look uniform, so maybe it was a neighbourhood association of some sort..? Find out! I know of someone's backyard Tiki bar that is named "Bar-I-Hai"! And on the subject of names, can someone tell me how THIS amazing Seattle ferry got it's name? (I just know "Kala" is Surgeon Fish in Hawaiian, but WHO and WHY did they name it that): http://www.kalakala.org/
