Bullocks Wilshire was there (where Nordstrom is today) in the early 1980's. I worked at Bullocks Wilshire for awhile, we called all the customers patrons.

The architecture is what was so unique. This is not an average outdoor mall! Does anyone remember the original J. Magnin store? Amazing! I've been trying to find images of the outdoor sculpture that was made out of concrete, but which had interactive discs for kids to spin. Does anyone remember these? I've been trying to locate images or find out the artist's name for years. They could have been created by Tom Van Sant, who did the wind chimes on the outside of the Robinsons building in 1965, but I don't see them on his website (http://www.tomvansant.com). If anyone has photos or info on those sculptures, please email me at hilaryjwright@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31835367.post-5981486359466704962008-10-16T01:54:00.000-07:002008-10-16T01:54:00.000-07:00In the early 2000s the mall underwent additional m...In the early 2000s the mall underwent additional minor renovations resulting in the alteration and replacement of landscape elements, building facades, outdoor furniture ,and floor materials to better reflect the Mediterranean theme. Included in this renovation was the installment of a carousel and a new wing with restaurants and shops.<BR/><BR/>------------------<BR/>hesslei.....<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.drivenwide.com" REL="nofollow">social bookmark</A>Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16203208898114850082noreply@blogger.com
