While this building dates from 1899, it did not become Mme. Tremblay's, a dry goods and novelty shop, until 1913. ?millie Tremblay had first come to the territory as a young French Canadian bride in 1895 with her husband Jack. After 15 years on Eldorado Creek, and with the era of the individual miner on the wane, they moved to Dawson City. There they completed the transition from miners to merchants by investing their earnings from the creeks in the store. Mme. Tremblay ran the store until 1936.

Cet immeuble date de 1899, mais ce n'est qu'en 1913 que Madame Tremblay y a install? sa boutique de mercerie et de nouveaut. Canadianne fran?aise, ?millie Tremblay ?tait une jeune mari?e lorsqu'elle est venue s'?tablir dans le territoire avec son mari Jack. Ils ont d'abord v?cu pendant 15 ans sur les bords du ruisseau Eldorado, puis, lorsque l'?poque des mineurs solitaires tarait ? sa fin, ils ont d?m?nag? ? Dawson City. Ils sont devenus commer?ants apr avoir investi dans leur magasin les revenus de leur prospection du ruisseau. Mme Tremblay a tenu sa boutique jusqu'en 1936.
