George Stephenson, who ranched in the Dundurn area in the 1880s, operated a dairy farm in along 8th Street until 1911. The intersection of 8th Street and Central Avenue (now Acadia Drive) was referred to as "Stephenson's Corner" for many years. The streetcar line from Saskatoon to Sutherland ran east down 8th Street and turned north into Sutherland.

The link to Sutherland was severed when College Drive was extended eastward, cutting off Central Avenue. The portion of Central Avenue south of College Drive was renamed Acadia Drive.
