Love Store opening next to Las Vegas shooting healing garden

The Love Store will open a new location this week next to the downtown Community Healing Garden, which was created in the four days that followed the Oct. 1 Las Vegas shooting. The store, located near the intersection of Charleston Boulevard and Third Street, will employ 30 people, owner Edward Wheeler said. This is the fifth Love Store, with three around the valley and one in Victorville, California. Officials approved the architectural plans for the store in July, according to city records. Love Store received a certificate of occupancy on Oct. 11. Some who work in the arts district disagree with having a store that sells sex-related items next to a memorial for shooting victims. Las Vegas Valley artist Nancy Good, who has held exhibits in the arts district, said the combination will turn into a punchline.
