Description
February 6, 1985
The end of an era when downtown San Diego was a shopping destination…came to an end in 1985. Hal Clement toured the empty Walker Scott store with owner George Scott. The store opened in 1935. It had the first escalator in Southern California and the first fire escape in San Diego. He was emotional but grateful for the opportunity he was given as an immigrant from Scotland.
