"Love the shops and parks but the parking stalls in the middle of downtown ruin it all. I've never seen anything like that in any other downtown areas. Make it a pedestrian street."
Dara Veung
"Lots going on in Downtown Langley. Tons of shops, cafe’s and unique restaurants. You’ll find cool spots for pictures along the mural walk or at McBurney Plaza which is always decorated so nicely. If you like thrifting you’ll be in heaven here, many thrift shops all in walking distance to each other."
