Lynn Valley Corner Store

July 27th, 2007

The corner store at Lynn Valley Road and Dempsey has a long history.

Years ago, there use to be two stores across from each other. One on the Lynn Canyon side of the corner and the other on the inside edge of the corner. The Lynn Valley bus used to stop right in front of them.

The store on the Lynn Canyon side eventually disappeared but the other one still stands strong.

A favourite stop on our way to Lynn Canyon, Mrs. Orom’s or after playing at Kilmer Park this Lynn Valley landmark is part of many memories.

Lynn Valley Corner Store Now

The Lynn Valley corner store has been revitilized. Connie (Olsen) is now the owner of the store and has renamed it The End of the Line General Store.

Today, The End of the Line General Store is more than just a corner store. It still carried penny candy, beverages and snacks but also has specialty foods, great coffee and a deli bar for quick goodies to enjoy on your walk to Lynn Head Waters, Lynn Canyon Park or to enjoy on their outdoor patio.

Thanks Connie for keeping a bit of Lynn Valley history alive and well.
