Does it just seem like a lot of classic spots are shutting their doors lately? Or is it reality? Let's take a look back at the past several months.
• Kam Bowl. Demolished entirely, even the entrance with the "triangle" structure. Walgreen's on the way.
• Masu's Massive Plate Lunch. Closed shop for good.
• McCully Chop Sui. Also closed shop, replaced by a furniture store. Bless the heart of the store owners. They want to keep the neon lights up. They know it's a landmark.
• McCully Fire Station. Located in Mo'ili'ili. Construction for a new fire station is underway.
And now, Varsity Theater, the landmark of all landmarks, nothing but a pile of rubble and asbestos dust. Just a matter of time before Stadium Bowl-O-Drome faces the wrecking ball. I still haven't gotten around to editing the final pics of the Varsity Theater destruction. Just lost the heart to do it last week, but I'll make myself do it now.
