Argyle League The Argyle League will occupy 1,300 square feet of space in the tunnel level of Understory's market hall.

HOUSTON—Development and construction firm Skanska has signed a lease agreement to bring an upscale local barbershop to Understory, the 35,000-square-foot community hub and culinary market at Bank of America Tower. The Argyle League, which specializes in classic barbering services, will open its second Houston area location in Understory in early 2020.

But, this is not a traditional barbershop. It is an experience that looks to elevate men's grooming in Houston in order to appeal to executives and upscale clientele frequenting the central business district. Since opening nearly six years ago, The Argyle League has become a staple in Houston.
