Hint 3: It starts with the letter “L.”

Hint 4: Pineapple Island.

Did you get it? The answer to one down in the Aug. 21 New York Times Crossword is “LANAI.” Colloquially known as “Pineapple Island” because of its past as an island-wide pineapple plantation, Lanai is the sixth-largest island in the state.
