Crescentwood is bounded by the Assiniboine River, Cambridge St. and Grosvenor Ave. The Corydon & Osborne area was just considered Fort Rouge. So was Osborne Village, that name didn't became popularized until the late 60s/early 70s.
The lot where the Burger King and Pet Valu are located was a Dominion store, then by the early 80s a Loblaw's or Economart and then later a car dealership, Orion Chev Olds.
