Kailua Don Quijote store could be replaced by Target
Target is looking to build in Kailua on the site of the current Don Quijote store.
On Tuesday night target presented their plans to Kailua residents - many of which had concerns about traffic.
"The main road, goes, skirts the outside and it doesn't go through the main business district of the town. So if they created a traffic jam, not just in their area but if they expect to draw people from Kanehoe, it's faster for people who lives in Kanehoe to go to Salt Lake," said Kailua resident Clinton Abe.
"Because we understand the, you know, the unique feel of Kailua, we're actually going to be building our smallest store in Hawaii," said Ed Padgett, a Target representative.
"Traffic is not only a concern for Kailua residents, it's also a concern for Target."
Target hopes to begin construction in 2011.
When complete, the store would have between 250 and 300 employees.
