I will be getting a hold of Max Norton, who owns the barber shop downtown and asking to interview and shoot at places relevant to the story. I will also be finding interesting designs in architecture and see where they both take me.

Max's Old Time Barber Shop

Come and visit Max Norton while getting a haircut at Max's Old Time Barber Shop and Salon downtown Albany at 124 Ellsworth St. His shop is open from Monday to Saturday 8:30 to 6:00.

In January of 2009, Norton enrolled in Phagans Beauty College in Corvallis. He graduated in December of 2009 and opened his first barber shop and salon on the first of May in 2010. His business has been a great success for him as he has eight to sixteen new and returning clients a day.

Norton has a passion for building custom made Harley's and hot rods in which he displays in his barber shop. The Harley in the picture is a work in progress displayed within his shop.

Downtown Albany

Celia Formiller is the owner of Frogs and Polliwogs, a store for children, in downtown Albany.

She has remodeled the upstairs of the store turning it into a place where parents and their children may lounge and play in a cozy, fun atmosphere.

"I'm calling it the Lily Pad Lounge and children can come hang out and play with all the fun activity tables and toys," says Formiller, "There will also be free internet available and students with children are more than welcomed to come study while their kiddos play."

The Lily Pad Lounge will be opened from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm Monday through Friday and there is a $3.00 charge per kid for all day play.

The streets of downtown Albany are filled with the hustle of shoppers. Emma is a popular clothing store on first street where women like to gather and shop.








The Pix is a historical movie theatre to catch a mid day movie after shopping downtown.
