New Westminster BC is a truly livable city, where residents can live, work and play. Today, the “Royal City” invites you to explore its historical streets, enjoy walks along the boardwalk at the Quay, have dinner at charming restaurants and pubs, relax on the patios, or be active in the city’s amazing recreational facilities. Likewise, New Westminster also has an active arts community, with many options for art, music or theatre. The summer season brings many festivals and events which draw visitors from all over the Lower Mainland.
The city’s Community Heritage Commission commitments and efforts to preserve its heritage homes make New Westminster well known. Above all, there are several historical residential walking tours that everyone can take in order to experience the charming heritage homes and museums. This has an impact in the New Westminster Real Estate market.
