111 named places from the real map are in this walk. Here is what each kind is like when you step through the door, with real examples you can visit:
Shelves of goods run in rows toward the back, there's a display table near the door, and a register counter sits beside the entrance.
For example: MWR Seabreeze Aquatic Center, Warfield Gymnasium, Mona's Hair Tekniques, Eight Thirty Eight Tattoo and Art Gallery.
Tables with paired chairs fill the room, and high-backed booths run down one wall. A chalkboard menu hangs over the kitchen counter at the back, where a server stands ready. Posters brighten the side wall.
For example: Antonio's Mexican Food & Grill, Thai Village, Pepe's Mexican Food, The Strandwich.
Long shelf aisles run the length of the store, stocked with colourful goods. A glowing cooler wall lines the back, and checkout lanes wait near the front.
For example: Grocery Outlet, Surfside Mini-Mart Liquor, Allan's Liquor, Rocket.
Rows of pews split by a centre aisle lead to an altar at the front, with a plant standing on either side. It's calm and still.
For example: Seabee Chapel, Evangelical Baptist Church, Port Hueneme First Assembly of God Church, Port Hueneme Church of Christ.
A bright counter runs across the back with three registers, and lit menu screens hang above it. Behind the counter you can hear the fryers hiss and the grill sizzle. Two touch-screen kiosks stand near the door, a soda fountain hums along the right wall, and booths line the left wall, with small two-seat tables in the middle.
For example: Taco Bell, McDonald's, KFC, Habit Burger & Grill.
The lobby has a long front desk with a brass bell and a wall of key-card slots behind it. There's a red rug with a sofa and armchairs, tall potted plants, a brass luggage cart and two elevator doors. A chandelier glitters overhead. Past the lobby, a corridor leads to guest rooms, each with a bed, nightstands and lamps, a TV on the dresser and a window.
For example: Navy Gateway Inn & Suites, Americas Best Value Inn Oxnard Port Hueneme, Holiday Inn Express Port Hueneme, Casa Via Mar Inn, an Ascend Collection Hotel.
A front office greets you. Down the corridor, classrooms have rows of small desks all facing a whiteboard, with the teacher's desk in the corner.
For example: Parkview Elementary School, Hueneme Elementary School, Richard Bard Elementary School, Sunkist Elementary School.
A waiting room with chairs and a coffee table faces the reception desk. Down the hall, exam rooms each have a bed, a small desk and a chair.
For example: NBVC Port Hueneme Medical Clinic, Smile Dental Care, Silver Strand Optometry, Landmark Family Dental.
The espresso machine hisses behind a wooden counter, next to a grinder and a glass case of pastries. A chalkboard lists the drinks. Small round tables fill the room, and a sofa corner with a rug, a lamp and a bookcase sits by the window. Warm bulbs hang low over everything.
For example: Ann's Bakery, Fresco Juice Bar, Starbucks, Panaderia Conchita Bakery.
Desks with chairs, a bookcase of files and a few plants. It's quiet apart from keyboards.
For example: Naval Surface Warfare Center Port Hueneme Division, Channel Islands Harbormaster, Chase, Citi.
Pedestals with artefacts stand in a grid across the gallery, with benches for resting and an information desk by the door.
For example: Ventura County Maritime Museum, United States Navy Seabee Museum, Port Hueneme Historical Museum.
It smells of wood smoke and baking dough. A brick dome oven glows orange at the back with a stack of split logs beside it. Pies sit under glass on the counter, a chalkboard menu hangs on the brick wall, and the tables have red-and-white checked cloths with shakers of chili flakes and parmesan.
For example: Little Caesars Pizza, Domino's Pizza, Freddy's Pizza.
A service counter faces a row of waiting chairs, and a flag stands in the corner. Offices open off a corridor.
For example: Port Hueneme Community Center, Port Hueneme City Hall, Port Hueneme Police Department.
Styling chairs line one wall in front of mirrors, waiting chairs sit opposite, and the front counter is by the door.
For example: Nails Expo, Colorful Nails & Hair.
Fluorescent lights hum over narrow aisles packed floor to ceiling with snacks and drinks. Glass-door coolers glow along the back wall. By the register, hot dogs turn on a roller grill under a heat lamp, the slushie machine churns red and blue, and the coffee station smells burnt in the best way.
For example: Navy Exchange Autoport, 76.
A long teller counter runs across the back, a row of waiting chairs sits by the door, and banker's desks with chairs are spread across the floor.
For example: U.S. Bank, Bank of America.
Rows of bookcases run across the room, and reading tables with chairs sit along the front. The checkout desk is by the door, and a plant stands in the corner. It's quiet.
For example: Ray D Prueter Library.
Rows of white front-loading washers line both walls, their round glass doors like portholes. Stacked dryers tumble at the back. A long folding table in the middle has warm clothes on it, a row of plastic chairs waits, and a change machine blinks by the door.
For example: Coin Laundry.
Exercise mats, barbells and punching bags fill the floor. Dumbbells sit on a rack, and the front desk is by the door.
For example: LA Fitness.
White display tables hold laptops and phones with glowing screens. A whole wall of TVs plays bright colours, and headphones hang in rows on one side. A service counter is by the door.
For example: Verizon.
