If you're going to list a Maison Blanche, I will raise you a Goudchaux's:
That was the main place I liked to shop for clothing, either Cortana or downtown (I think it was on Laurel?). I remember $20 levi's and stuff like that.
Hell, I remember using their mechanic shop at Cortana. It was standalone in the parking lot, think it became a Firestone after awhile.

Gen X disguised as a Boomer is a very dangerous animal.

The first time I got drunk was a friend's older sister worked at butlers shoe store across from K&B at the mall. She ran in bought some Boone's farm and let us drink it in the back of the shoe store before we went to the movies.

Really miss Shoney's breakfast bar. That was always a stop on the way to family vacation growing up.

I have a lot of nostalgic childhood memories about Hoppers, Children’s Palace, K&B, and Sports Unlimited.

Federated if anyone remembers it. That store was the precursor to Best Buy but bungled their management.

I just remember Otasco because there was a guy in my hometown who could fix anything. And it was always "oh yeah, he can fix anything...he used to run the Otasco"

This brings up the fact that there were TWO COMPLETELY DIFFERENT store chains in LA: Godchaux's ( New Orleans) and Goudchaux's (Baton Rouge). Note the different spellings in the signs:
New Orleans/Metairie:
Baton Rouge:
To make matters even more confusing, in the 1980s Goudchaux's of Baton Rouge bought out Maison Blanche.
