Recently I witnessed a security guard talking to a couple that had taken photos of each other. I asked why at the Customer Service counter. I was told security don't like photos taken for copyright/trademark issues and just in case you are documenting the store for layout and inventory before a robbery. The best time to take photos are after the mall doors are open at 9 am and before most of the stores opening at 9:30 or 10 am when thare are few guards and customers to bother you. The ground level mall entrance usually open early is through the back of Blenz Coffee (via the Granville Street right side door) and past Stitch International and Feet First. On March 21 there was an about 3 inches white Apple logo on a clear cellophane sheet stuck to the left door knob security plate. Looking through the crack of the doors and with the light from the windows from the East I could see large portable work platform scaffolds, dusty concrete floor and few pillars blocking the view. No work was happening since March 21 (Good Friday) was a statutory holiday. The Granville Street side of spaces of D034 and D034A-(the more likely by Blenz) (potential street entrance for Apple) are unfinished and open. Lots of scaffolding and construction debris on the closed and barricaded sidewalk waiting to be carted away. surrey.bc.ca Thomas beat me to take the photos.
