2001: Paul's Barber Shop

Paul Samuelson bought the building in 1995 and rented the building to several businesses including greeting cards, a candy store, and an art gallery. When a renter moved out in 2000, Paul decided to move his one-chair barber shop in, becoming the only barber in Langley at the time.
