John R. Hogan operated Hogan's Pharmacy in the late 1800s and early 1900s, where Charlie Green's Market would later be located. Nicholas S. Davenport (1871-1930) studied at the Albany School of Pharmacy in the 1890s. In June 1901, Nicholas worked as a clerk at the John R. Hogan Drug Store in Saranac Lake. He worked as a druggist in Saranac Lake most of his life and died at his home at 53 Shepard Avenue in July 1930.

The Hogan Block was the home of Sam Edelberg's Tailor Shop (later Edelberg's Fur Store) about 1907, and of Charlie Green's Market, starting in the 1920s.
