Pahoa Woodland Center Protest

[Rob Tucker]

Dave, I think that both James and I both have a hard time saying 7-11 or BK have no right to exist. The issue is Pahoa's sense of self to borrow a phrase. 7-11 and Subway were generally able, dispite their logos, to merge into the scene. The Woodland Center with Longs, BK and KFC is likely about to forever change Pahoa's sense of self.

However I am prepared to be surprised and admit that the architect who designed the center will have done such a wonderful job that I will be able to say with pride... "turn right at the KFC and you are in Pahoa."

Nothing is impossible I guess.
