NEWS: Juniper Retail Store Opens Uptown
80 Prince William Street, Saint John, New Brunswick
Entrepreneur Katelyn Price had a successful first day yesterday at her new shop on Prince William Street called Juniper. She had identified this storefront as the perfect location back in March of 2020. The day she came in to sign the Offer to Lease, COVID-19 was first hitting the news! With all the uncertainly, she decided to delay signing the Offer in favour of a wait and see approach. Fast forward 3 months and she was ready to sign!
According to the ABOUT section of her Facebook Page, Juniper is “a sustainable lifestyle store”
“Juniper will provide the Saint John community with a convenient avenue of making sustainable and ethical consumer choices. We will carry clothing and skincare, as well as gifts and small home wares.”
Many of you may know the space as the former location of Liquid Gold and most recently ladies fashion store Uptown Vibes. For many years it was the home of the Buckland Gallery. The space has such a great aesthetic with the high/exposed wood ceilings and makes the perfect backdrop for all her beautiful natural products!

Former Birks space leased!
20 King Street, Saint John, New Brunswick
The sun came out and so did the tenants! The Landlord, in fact, received two offers to lease on this space just days apart. The ink is now dry on a lease for a tenant to set up in this prominent uptown corner formerly occupied by Birks Jewelers. The store is scheduled to open in August.
Unfortunately, I’ve been sworn to secrecy on who it is. All I can say is that it’s retail and is a good fit with the mix of tenants currently in CenterBeam Place. Be patient…it won’t be long!
