Castle & Cooke Hawai'i has handed the keys off to the last of more than 16,000 homes it has developed and sold in master-planned Mililani since 1968.

Hubert and Simone Barboza helped purchase the last unit of Island Courtyards, a Mililani Mauka condominium, for daughter Jamie Cross; her husband, Kalei; and the couple's 2-year-old son, Teal.

Castle & Cooke officials marked the occasion Friday with a blessing at the home.

"Thousands of Hawai'i families have found Mililani a great place to raise their children," Castle & Cooke Hawai'i president Harry Saunders said in a press release. "Many of those children have grown to become Mililani homeowners themselves."

Saunders added: "We welcome the Cross family to the last new home in this great neighborhood, and we hope that someday young Teal will find a home here or in one of Castle & Cooke's future communities."

Mililani consisted of thousands of acres of pineapple fields when Castle & Cooke began the project 40 years ago. The company has delivered an average of 400 homes annually since.

The National Municipal League in Washington, D.C., recognized Mililani in 1986 as Hawai'i's only All-America City, and Money magazine placed Mililani on its 2005 list of best places to live in the United States.
