After 43 years in Vancouver’s Uptown Village, a family-owned all-wood furniture store is closing Jan. 26. Main Street Trader, on the corner of 20th and Main streets, announced the closure in a Dec. 26 Facebook post. Customers responded with “an outpouring of stories,” co-owner Karen Watkins said, “about how they bought a dresser for their child and now their child is in college, or about the table that they bought and how many meals they’ve had on it.”
