Is Cross Creek Station, New Brunswick, Canada, a town? It sounds like one, and has roads/streets, but I don't see any buildings on satellite images?

Not that it even matters, but I’ve always liked New Brunswick (Canada) though I’ve never been there. The Canadian Maritime is both Appalachian and Nautical. I’ve always imagined this region as looking like the Shenandoah Valley or the Vermont inn on Newheart, or Walton’s Mountain (admittedly I am frequently disappointed when I see what places really look like), replete with stone bridges, hiking trails, a Point of Rocks, Maryland railroad station.

I’ve always thought Cross Creek Station was a pretty name for a town when I first saw it on a map of New Brunswick. Well, nowadays we have satellite imagery and street imagery at our fingertips and I get to see places I’ll never go.

Evidently, this IS a town, but I see no buildings at all. Nothing shows up on Google images, either. But the roads / streets come together like there should be a town there. The satellite imagery is poor quality and blurred, but there appear to be spots where there once were buildings.

Does a town, Cross Creek Station, New Brunswick, EXIST? Or is it just a placename on a map?
