You can't blame people for not wanting to own something that needs a lot of effort to maintain its beauty. Why do you think Elizabeth Taylor was married so many times?

Valhalla Pure Outfitters is vacating their Langford Location at the end of March  as the Lease has expired.

They are relocating to smaller digs downtown at the former location of Ocean River Sports on Store St next to Capital Iron.

The new tenants in the Langford property are said to be a Gym however no details on the building being leased to a Gym are available at this time

Forge fitness is moving into the seemingly always vacant space on the 800 block of Yates between the Starbucks and the Wave. I think this space was most recently occupied by Murray Rankin's campaign headquarters or a Halloween store. I'm unclear if this is the same Forge that is currently on Fort Street in the Mosaic building. I suspect so and that they are simply moving.

Yes, it's a move from Fort.

We can fill them with pot shops, bike chop shops and spandex retailers.

Didn't Valhalla used to be on Broughton at Government, where one of those tacky tourist shops now sits?

Valhalla says MAY 31st is their last day.  Big sale too.

 

 

 

 

Richard Harley I am not sure who HB is, but this information is inaccurate.he Millstream store will not close until May 31st [not March 31] and will have the biggest, best CLOSING OUT FOREVER sale that you have ever seen. Everything will be on sale, every brand, every section of the store - even the fixtures! You will not want to shop anywhere else while this sale is on.

I thought it was on the side on Broughton? Up from the corner?

Whew. My heart wouldn't be able to take another Romeo's-ish controversy.

Or should that be "phew" instead of "whew"? I suppose we can always work on that.

Richard Harley Heather Pearson The Langford store, which is a separate franchise from the one that is opening downtown, will close its doors forever on MAY 31st. The sale that is starting very soon will be important to check out!

he better talk to his staff at Langford then because they are the ones telling customers that the reopening will be in 2 weeks on Store st and that next week there is a sale n Langford. The staff announce it to customers this morning. They said that they are waiting for the owner to tell them when to start the sale
Also noticed that shelving g is being dismantled as shelves are emptying of merchandise

His employees are now confirmed to have loose lips but at least it's partially true and the cat is out if the bag
