If I had to take a wild guess, your pharmacist's business is probably incorporated at the old address, and they haven't updated their incorporation documents.

Google periodically pulls those from public records, and most likely this is why the marker moved back.
- murphyslab 3y agoThat's possible, however I'm not changing the address, I'm changing the position of the marker on the map by 70 metres. Google regularly tweaks marker coordinates, in order to provide better driving directions, without changing the address. Additionally, the wrong location, where the marker has reverted to, does not correspond to a building structure, rather it's in the middle of a greenspace. I've illustrated it here: https://i.imgur.com/kvYePAZ.png https://i.imgur.com/kvYePAZ.png All of the other markers I've included in the diagram match what is shown on Google Maps; they are correctly positioned at the structure where the organization is located. One oddity of the location is that it is like a campus, hence all of the buildings share the same street address, but with different unit numbers (e.g. 9999 Hacker Road #5 and 9999 Hacker Road #8).
- astrange 3y agoThis sometimes causes businesses to show up on the map at their owners' house instead of the actual location. Or a restaurant's name will change to Obscure Name Pty Ltd LLC Co Inc because that's the name of their holding company. The last one happens unusually often in Australia I feel like, maybe because people outside the country don't know how to validate the data.
