Water Street has a long list of places to drink, but the bar on the north end of the main drag is once again open for business. Now called The Corner, the new tavern (1247 N. Water St.) is the former home of London Bridge and McGillicuddy's, and is named for its location: the intersection of Water and Knapp.
