  • Langley restaurant destroyed in fire

The executive director of the Downtown Langley Business Association says the community is rallying together after a Mexican restaurant in the city’s downtown core was destroyed by a massive fire on Saturday. 

Teri James says it’s tragic to see the building in the city’s downtown core completely gone, impacting several businesses, including Viva Mexico restaurant. 

James says it’s the single biggest fire in the history of downtown Langley and fire crews spent the whole day battling the blaze. 

James says she tries to stay promising, but it remains unclear when the downtown core business community will recover from the fire.
