Description

A shop or amenity that is currently vacant, out of business or permanently closed.

Rationale

When a business is closed, but the building, sign posts, parking area, et cetera are all still in place, the shop should stay on the map. It hasn't moved. It isn't gone and isn't under construction. It is just vacant and awaiting a new tenant / owner.

Usage

Change existing shop=tag for the closed business to node shop=vacant in the center of the shop. Larger shops may be mapped as an area area tagged as shop=vacant.

The name of the old shop should be removed or changed to "vacant" as well.

Additional Attributes

Tag Description
name=* The name of the shop.
addr:housenumber=* The street address of the shop.

Rendering
