New Westminster Condos and homes for sale
New Westminster, also known as “The Royal City,” is the oldest city in Western Canada (1858) and was the first capital of the Colony of BC (1859). Queen Victoria gave the town the name after the City of Westminster in England. The city’s natural beauty and strategic location on the Fraser river – a primary transportation corridor at the time.
Today, New Westminster is a culturally rich city at the heart of British Columbia’s Lower Mainland. New Westminster has been diligent in committing to protecting its heritage with close to 60 heritage sites in the city, such as Irving House – said to be the oldest house in the Lower Mainland. Museums and annual festivals like the Hyack Festival add to New West’s colour. The Fraser River has long been a natural transportation route for New Westminster, with Highway 91 and the Trans-Canada Highway nearby providing easy access to points east, west, north and south. New West is also home to necessary rail yards, supporting industry and riverfront parts. Natural beauty was critical in selecting this area as a capital city, and New West continues to delight. Panoramic vistas abound, and many parks and pathways honour the city’s heritage.
