Lower Mainland of British Columbia, Canada

Little older home staying put between two commercial buildings in main shopping area. How much longer? (Picture taken with my cell phone.)

Shortly after it purchased the home, the City of Langley designated Michaud House a heritage site in 1980. The Langley Heritage Society and Langley Arts Council began restoration at that time, with financial assistance from the British Columbia Heritage Trust and the Michaud family.

Brydon Lagoon began as a sewage settling pond in 1963 in the city of Langley and was used until 1975. After Langley City joined Greater Vancouver Regional sewage system, the Langley Field Naturalists began to take an interest in the lagoon as an area with high wildlife value. They petitioned Langley City to designate the area as a Nature Park which occurred in 1985. The Langley Field Naturalists, using a grant from the Public Conservation Assistance Fund, began their work of enhancing the habitat and building a nature trail around the lagoon.

This cafe has been here since the 1950's. One of the original owners is still alive, 91 years old. The decor never changed. Check the black and white photos.
