Michael Broadbent is opening up a new boutique grocery store at 343 W. Pender St. The now-gone building at 337 W. Pender used to house the Dominion Hall upstairs, and was built in 1906. One of the layers of wallpaper is an art-nouveau floral design that is almost as interesting as the painted World sign. But Vancouver went into an economic recession around the First World War, and Taylor lost control of The World in 1915. The World went out of business in 1924, when it was bought by and folded into The Sun.
