Services Canada has leased one the units in the former Woolworths’ building on Vernon’s main street.
The former retail space at the corner of 30 Avenue and 33 Street has stood empty for years, but the intention now is to subdivide the space and find six tenants to move in.
A city demolition permit has been issued for the building, but real estate agent Ken McCluskey said that permit is to allow renovations, not the destruction of the building.
