Corner Drug Store has been a staple of Sackville New Brunswick for many years and has an exciting history! The land was the site of a small shop that was built in 1857. In 1875, the building was extended and raised to 3 stories, and opened as a pharmacy. Other parts of the building contained stores, offices, and a hall used by community groups, meetings, and as a band room for the Sackville Citizens Band.
The building continued to operate as a pharmacy under various names until 1923 when the pharmacy name was changed to the “Corner Drug Store”, and remained a pharmacy until 1992.
In August 2006, the building was destroyed by fire and demolished. In 2009, the Corner Drug Store (Guardian) was re-opened, and continues the tradition going back to 1875 of having a pharmacy on the Ground floor.
