Christiki and Futura Girl: Thanks for all the good tips and info! Spending hours looking for long-since-demolished buildings makes me feel dumb. :)

Kona Pali Apts:
What city are these apts in?

Tiki Apts on Highland:
That address is from an old source, and is likely outdated. Probably bulldozed like so many others.

Costa Mesa Tiki:
Squawker -- What tiki places are there in Costa Mesa? I only know the Ala Moana on Wilson, and a few small apt bldgs off Baker (between Bear & Fairview?). I notice that the Tiki Bar on Placentia is now gone.

Kona Lanes:
Kona Lanes is headed for that big luau in the sky, as early as the end of May. Details are posted in another thread here.

Royal Hawaiian:
I pasted it under the wrong heading. My bad.

M-M & The Valley:
That would be cool. When I head up that way, I'll give you advance notice/warning. :)

San Fernando Non-Tiki (OT):
Since we're discussing what is and isn't still standing, does anyone spot any obvious on my non-tiki list for the Valley?...

Rocket Lanes, 9171 Desoto Ave, Chatsworth
National Car Wash, 5950 Laurel Canyon Bl, N Hollywood
Paty's Restaurant, 10001 Riverside Dr, N Hollywood
Mission Hills Bowl, 10430 Sepulveda Bl
Valencia Bowl, 23700 Lyons Ave, Newhall
Matador Bowl, 9118 Balboa Bl, Northridge
Biff’s, 18134 Sherman Way, Reseda. Pacific Grill now at this address. Same bldg?
Kester Avenue Elementary School, 5353 Kester, Sherman Oaks
St. Michael & All Angels Episcopal Church, 3646 Coldwater Canyon Bl, Studio City
Sports Center Bowl, 12655 Ventura Bl, Studio City
Paul Bunyan Muffler Man, Xpert Tune, 15237 Sherman, Van Nuys
Bowlerland Lanes, 7501 Van Nuys Bl, Van Nuys. Closed. Still standing?
Canoga Park Bowl, 20122 Van Owen, Winnetka
Woodlake Lanes, 23130 Ventura Bl, Woodland Hills

Again, I'm not looking for y'all to do any research. But if you remember something being bulldozed, it would help me to know.

Thanks again!
