For Sean McCloud, the construction on Washington Street in Greencastle shifting further along has been a relief to the Trog’s Cloud 9 vape and accessory shop he co-owns with Amy Heller and Katie Nickerson.

For weeks, the road construction crews have positioned themselves in front of the only three entrances to the shop and at times, taking the shop’s parking lot space, too. Yet, Trog’s Cloud 9 has remained open, even if they struggled to make their customers aware they were open.

McCloud stated he had to tell the construction crew to leave the property a few times so his customers could enter the premises. For now, they are relieved the construction seems to be making progress and moving on. Friday, May 12, was the first day since construction started that their parking lot was accessible via at least two of the entrances.
