Nantucket is a tourism hot spot, just 30 miles off the Cape Cod coast. In 2016 National Geographic named Nantucket as the best island in the world. From the early days of European settlement, it was used as a whaling station. Many islanders made a fortune through whaling and built houses to match their status. It was the whale oil however that fueled the fire that devastated 40 acres of the town center in 1846. Shortly afterwards, the whaling industry went into decline and many people left the island. The rebuilt buildings from the late 18th century and early 19th were preserved and were collectively recognized as a National Historical Landmark District in 1966.
