Cook St. Liquor in Victoria's Cook Street Village will be relocating to a new space by early 2018, according to owner 3DS Ventures Inc.
3DS recently received approvals from the City of Victoria to move its retail operation from a small storefront between the 1000-blocks of Sutlej Street and Oliphant Avenue to a former RBC Royal Bank branch at the intersection of Cook and Sutlej streets.

In addition to upgrading the interior and exterior of the building, 3DS Ventures plans to install six additional bicycle parking spaces (bringing the total to eight), replace cracked and mismatched paving stones along the building frontage, and landscape the perimeter of the property together with the use of a trellis along the southern wall for the purpose of growing ornamental hops.
