Storefronts and Palm Trees on a Waikiki Street, Honolulu, Hawaii, Late 1940s
A quiet moment on a Waikiki street captures the low-rise, palm-lined commercial district that characterized Honolulu's famous beach neighborhood in the years following World War II. Storefronts like the sporting goods shop seen here catered to both residents and the growing wave of tourists and servicemen visiting the islands during this period of rapid postwar growth.
