James Emerson built his mill in 1905 on the waterfront between Queen and Grant Streets. In 1912 it became the Thurston-Flavelle Mill and later just Flavelle. Even with a number of different owners, it remained the 'Flavelle Mill'. Other than a year and a half shutdown during the depression and a closure and rebuild in the mid 1990's, the Flavelle Mill is the longest running Mill on Burrard inlet and is the only remaining mill on Burrard Inlet in 2013. With the coming of Evergreen there is talk of it becoming a 'Waterfront Village'.

The Barnet Motor Inn, at the SW corner of Barnet and St Johns Streets was a reputable lodging when first built, even hosting Miss Port Moody contestants. It changed its reputation in the mid 1990's. It was torn down in about 2004 in anticipation that the mass transit system would be a Light Rail Transit (LRT) running down St Johns Street. As of 2013, nothing has replaced it.

The Melrose Apartments were built before the depression on the Barnet Highway beside View Street. They provided low cost housing up until 1995 when they were torn down to provide access for the widening of Barnet Highway. The site is becoming the location for the Evergreen tunnel entrance.
