As of this weakened there are now two locations to purchase the “funky items” that have mad Homework famous in Prince Rupert.
Opinion 250 in Prince George is reporting that the Prince Rupert based store will set up shop in the Central Interior moving into Prince George‘s downtown core, taking up residence in the old Royal Bank building at 3rd and Quebec Streets.
Homework partner, Anthony Voitic is a former Prince George resident and he is returning home to open up the Homework store, a business that many hope will help to rebuild the rather dowdy looking downtown area that Prince George has.
Moving into the old bank building which has been vacant for a number of years, there is over 6000 square feet on two floors to showcase many of the items that have made Homework one of the main attractions of Cow Bay.
David Smook, along Voitic both see great potential for the Prince George operation. And there’s a very good chance for success for the two, Prince George with a large college and university population could be just the right demographic for the variety of clothing, accessories, and furniture that Homework features.
It will be of interest to see if they bring a bit of life to Prince George’s downtown area as well, which has seen little in the way of commercial development since the Pine Centre Mall and Big Box Villages opened up.
New Business Moving IN to Downtown P.G.

It’s a departure in the city, this weekend a brand new retail store opens in downtown Prince George.
It is called Homework and is the product of a couple of Prince Rupert residents who are coming to town to set up a shop in the old Royal Bank Building at 3rd and Quebec.
David Smook, along with his partner Anthony Voitic, will open their new, as they call it, "Funky" store in the down town. Anthony Voitik who has lived in Prince Rupert for many years is returning to his old home town of Prince George. As David Smook put it, "Anthony used to live in PG and loved the city. We both think the city has great potential and he is heading there while I look after our business in Prince Rupert which has been operating for the past five years."
According to the two , Homework has a high end vibe "We are going to offer clothing, accessories, and furniture with a modern slant to it."
The store will occupy 6,000 sq feet in total on both floors of the old Royal Bank building.
The building has sat vacant for many years.
