K-Nails
K-Nails (1,474 square feet)
103 Newmarket Square, Newmarket South, Newport News, VA
This salon opened in 2007; it was originally split up into two tenants:
The space to the left (where the "Open sign" and bigger windows are) was originally The Record Store, which opened on October 31st, 1957 and re-located to another space in the center on April 30th, 1959. It became Barr Bros. Jewelers in September 1959, which closed in 1997.
The space to the right (with the shorter windows between brick) was originally a Wellworth Cleaners, which opened on May 3rd, 1956 and re-located to another space in the center in April 1959. It became Loft's Candies in May 1959, which re-located somewhere else in the city in 1969. After the closure Barr Bros. expanded into this space and the two tenants have been joined together as one tenant ever since.
The space became The Clothes Line/Tree Swing Kids consignment shop on August 21st, 1998. It doesn't appear to have had any occupants in the early 2000s, other than BJ's Wholesale Club using the space temporarily in fall 2006 to advertise/sell club memberships prior to their opening that December.
