Prompted by this classic 2002 Stores that I miss thread on HawaiiStories, a reader sent in a photo of Pete's Modelcraft from 1971, crediting it to George F. Kennedy. It was a store at Pearlridge, mentioned among several others.
Lum's Restaurant, Pearlridge Music, DJ's Sound City, Hallmark, Spencer, The Ritz, Foxmoore Casuals, San Francisco Rag Shop, Daiei, Candyman, Farrell's, Hartfield's, International Kitchen, Playwell Toys, See's Candies, Popcorn Planet... some long gone, some back from the past.
Of course, old-timers will remember when Pearlridge had Phase I and Phase II, none of this Uptown/Downtown silliness. Pearlridge Opened in 1972 and expanded in 1976. Any fond (or less than fond) memories of this retail landmark?
