I am surprised Peacock cafe is still here. I bought a lot of fresh juice from them 20 years ago.

It’s similar to Up Against the Wall in that it was extremely hip, not just trendy. It’s not Commander Salamander. The name sounds like Boogie Nights, but it’s obviously not that.

Is there a way to see a list of stores from the early 90s?

You can do a search and add ca 1992 or something similar. You can also search guidebooks, tourist maps, and articles from local publications focused on shopping. Internet Archive might turn up something.

Sounds like it was Otherz Brothers. They had great dunce caps and really cute feathered belts.

How far back are are we going? I grew up here and I'm in my 50's so this could be fun or just depressing.

Never got into dunce caps (knew many who did tho, lol) but feathered belts is really taking me back.
