Scope and content
Rhodes Department Store - Villa Plaza location. Rhodes was the first store to open at the (then) new Villa Plaza Shopping Center in Lakewood in March of 1957. It was also the largest store in square footage. The exterior of the store appears basically the same, with the exception of a different paint scheme, in 1974 as it did in 1957. Rhodes would close their downtown flagship store in December of 1974 shortly after construction of a new Liberty House/Rhodes at the Tacoma Mall. Color photograph ordered by Liberty House/Rhodes, Oakland, CA.
