Originally, this was a small, isolated frame building built ca. 1904 to house Robert Irvine’s and G.H. Clare’s general merchant’s business. The building later housed the Q. And S. Store, the Red Robin Café (1929) and Allwood’s harness shop.

The building was demolished in 1965 to make way for the present-day Royal Bank. The façade of adjoining businesses, such as Blondo's salon and Pumpkins & Monkeys toy store, mimics the stepped roofline of the old building.

In 2016 this site was razed once again. It is currently unknown what will eventually be built here.
