at vs on the corner of the street

[Daryazu]

Good afternoon,

I have a question about the prepositions. What is the difference between ¨on the corner of the street¨ and ¨at the corner of the street¨?

thank you,
Darya

Hello Darya,

actually, in the previous discussions there is no clear answer about the difference. Are they interchangeable? without even a slight difference in meaning?

Both 'at' and 'on' are commonly used, with no discernible difference for the native speaker.
Alan pulls it apart here:
at/on/in the corner
