Scope and Content
Photograph of the exterior of the Magee Grocery Store building at it's original location at 6108 Patterson Avenue in Burnaby. The exterior of the building is painted brown and the windows and entrance doors are covered with plywood. Two large pieces of timber supports are visible sticking out of the lower side of the building. The building was moved from this site and installed at the southeast end of Hill Street in Heritage Village becoming the Real Estate and Surveyor's Office building.
History
The building was originally located at 3043 (pre-1958) / 6108 Patterson Avenue, Lot 22, Block 33, District Lot 151, Plan 2002. It was built ca. 1929, possibly by Mr. Cuthbert Pratt. Over the years it was used as a confectionary store, grocery store, home, and small boarding house. By 1977, it was operating as the Magee Grocery Store. The building was moved to BVM in May 1977 and then adapted to look like the original Dow, Fraser & Co. Ltd. real estate building.
