The second mall in Hawai'i was a privately-built venture. The first phase of WAI'ALAE ["wiy-uh-liy"] CENTER opened for business in November 1954...3 months after the dedication of MOANALUA CENTER. WAI'ALAE CENTER was rebuilt into the KAHALA MALL between 1968 and 1970.

The third mall-type shopping center in Hawai'i opened in August 1959, as the territory was achieving statehood. ALA MOANA CENTER was the Aloha State's first regional-size shopping venue.  It was 10 times the size of MOANALUA CENTER.

Speaking of which, we have a site plan of MOANALUA CENTER, as it was configured at the time of its first anniversary, in August 1955. Only the Hukilau Restaurant was air-conditioned. Over the years, the 250,000 square foot shopping facility never had a major expansion. In its original state, it housed twenty-one stores, with free parking for 500 autos.
