The second mall in Hawai'i was a privately-built venture. The first phase of WAI'ALAE 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 in Hawai'i, ALA MOANA CENTER, opened in August 1959, as the territory was achieving statehood. The original complex, which was the Aloha State's first regional-size shopping venue, 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, the mall housed twenty-one stores. Its parking lots accommodated 500 autos at one time.
