"Vancouver&amp;#8217;s newest vintage shop, &amp;#8216;Union Wood Co,&amp;#8217; will become a staple for residents of the Downtown-Eastside community that crave items with a retro, industrial feel.    Craig Pearce, the founder of the store, was inspired by the industrial buildings and wooden shipping docks that used to cover the Vancouver landscape. &amp;#8216;Union Wood Co&amp;#8217; is also reminiscent of the owner&amp;#8217;s stint as a garbage collector -- where he found joy in repurposing and reusing discarded items.  The store features several hand-crafted pieces created from found objects, while also acting as a haven for vintage thrift shoppers looking for a new DIY project. The store carries furniture and shop aprons while also working with customers to create their own custom items.&amp;#160;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
