Diners will have another option in downtown Haverhill when On the Corner Grill opens at Harbor Place early next year. The restaurant, a second location for the eatery, also fills a never-before-used storefront facing the Merrimack River on the first floor of Harbor Place Residences at 28-44 Merrimack St. Greater Haverhill Foundation Executive Director Alison J. Gulubick told WHAV George Chiachio, On the Corner Grill owner, signed a lease for the vacant 5,500 square-foot space across the courtyard from Barrio Haverhill. “The space with the courtyard overlooking the river is so attractive,” Chiachio said, adding he hopes construction will get underway soon so his new restaurant can open by March 1.
