New Life For Iconic Cox Warehouse In Shelburne

The iconic Cox Warehouse in Shelburne has been given new life. The historic building will undergo a major restoration following an investment to the tune of $229,000 through ACOA (Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency). Upgrades to the 110-year-old building include a new roof, window replacement, modernizing the heating system, reshingling and structural repairs. Following its restoration, the Cox Warehouse will become the new home of the micro-brewery operated by the Dock Street Brewing Company. President of the Shelburne Historical Society, Louise Lindsay called it a huge opportunity for the community. She says her organization has spent 20 years looking for a suitable use for Cox Warehouse.
