Victory Lanes Bowling Alley, 1165 Garnet Ave., opened to the public on Friday night, Aug. 23, 1948. Built at a cost of $250,000, it also featured a billiard room, lunch counter, soda fountain and cocktail lounge. It closed in 1968 and was briefly mentioned as a possible site for the Pacific Beach post office, which was then located at 1366 Hornblend St. In 1975, it became Organ Power Pizza, featuring the “world’s mightiest theatre organ,” a 25-ton, five-keyboard instrument with 100 pistons and thousands of pipes. You may know it better today as Typhoon Saloon.
