Treasure Island spotted!
@bobbytmke.bsky.social , were these stores still around when you came to Milwaukee? Mid-market department stores, focused on clothing, located in suburban strip malls. Those distinctive roofs were as much a part of the local landscape as Kohl's grocery stores' were.

A vanishingly rare positive outcome from the megabill:
It seems to have killed Portland's expensive and unnecessary Rose Quarter I-5 expansion.
