The Ontario College of Pharmacists (OCP) accepted the responsibility to ensure the museum accurately reflects an operating pharmacy of the Confederation period.� The College also agreed with the Ontario Heritage Foundation (OHF ) to operate the Apothecary as a museum for an initial period of 35 years (to 2005).� This agreement was recently extended to 2010.

The Niagara Apothecary at the Sign of the Golden Mortar is an excellent example of high style, eclectic mid-Victorian commercial architecture. The Italianate façade features arched glazed double doors and two arched plate glass show windows with accents of a Florentine "twisted rope" treatment.
