In 1917, Mr. and Mrs. S. L. Dollar purchased a farm near what would later be named Dollars Corner. The couple reportedly exchanged $150 and two cows for the land.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Vance |first1=Ken |title=Vern and Rene Dollar to celebrate 50th |url=http://www.thereflector.com/news/article_ecec4eb2-b10d-11e2-a0b6-0019bb2963f4.html |access-date=15 October 2019 |work=The Reflector |date=19 March 2014}}</ref> They opened a small store and [[Filling station|service station]] on one corner in 1924, which became a local landmark. One story claims that the name was coined by local sheriff's deputies, who would report to their superiors that they traveled "as far as Dollar's Corner."<ref>{{cite web |title=Dollars Corner |url=https://history.columbian.com/dollars-corner-3/ |website=Clark History |access-date=15 October 2019}}</ref>

In 2012, the landscape of Dollars Corner began to change drastically as a result of the realignment of [[Washington State Route 502]]. Historic buildings situated directly on the corner were demolished, with the exception of the former O'Brady's Drive-In restaurant, which became the center of a protracted compensation dispute.<ref>{{cite news |last1=Florip |first1=Eric |title=WSDOT delays Highway 502 project |url=https://tdn.com/news/state-and-regional/washington/wsdot-delays-highway-project/article_5a948852-ebe3-11e2-9b7f-0019bb2963f4.html |access-date=15 October 2019 |work=The Columbian |date=13 July 2013}}</ref><ref>{{cite news |last1=Case |first1=Marvin |title=O'Brady's issue still not settled |url=http://www.thereflector.com/news/article_ecec4eb2-b10d-11e2-a0b6-0019bb2963f4.html |access-date=15 October 2019 |work=The Reflector |date=30 April 2013}}</ref>
