This one-storey building on Arlington Street in Winnipeg was constructed in 1922. Its first occupant was a grocery store and, by December 1925, it was Store No. 7 of the Neals Grocery chain. From around 1940 to at least the mid-1970s, it was a local grocery known as Osmond’s. By the early 1980s, it had been converted into a private residence.
