Barbour’s General Store Grand Reopening happens this Saturday August 22nd! The historic icon located at the foot of King Street at Market Slip on the waterfront in the city’s uptown was recently acquired by Gilliane Nadeau’s Uncorked Tours. On the New Brunswick Day holiday August 3rd, a group of Saint Johners who care about tourism and hospitality donated their time to help clean, sort and store the artifacts at the General Store in preparation for opening a Saint John experience hub for visitors and locals.
