The City of Vancouver is coming under fire from a Granville Street army surplus store.
The shop’s manager claims work at the Orpheum Theatre — is hurting sales.
Crews are working on the Orpheum’s vintage sign — with several trucks blocking the area in-front of the theatre.
But employees next door at “Camouflage” claim they showed up to work — the store-front blocked — and told they weren’t allowed in.
Not only that — Manager Baseer Khudayar says they had no idea the work was even happening.
“Today is supposed to be the second busiest day of the year for us, and next week which is the Halloween weekend, that’s the busiest weekend, and they’re going to be here, same thing again next weekend.”
A small make-shift path has now been set up to let customers inside — but Khudayar says they’ve already seen an 80% drop in customers.
