West End
The neighborhoods on the western edge of New Westminster — Westend, North Arm, and Connaught Heights — overflow with character and charm. These largely residential areas mainly consist of single detached family homes, which makes for the perfect area to secure your starter home, or set down roots for many years to come. Youth in your neighborhood thrive in excellent schools, with several nearby elementary schools feeding FraserRiver Middle School, and New Westminster Secondary.
Locals in these neighbourhoods take advantage of their close proximity to the waterfront esplanade at the Quay, with walkways alongside the Fraser River, fabulous viewpoints, as well as beautiful public art & horticultural displays. For those looking for high-rise living, a series of modern apartment style condos can be found along Quayside Drive, providing residents with stunning waterfront views that also overlook the surrounding city. Residents can indulge in local shopping at Queensborough Landing just across the Queensborough Bridge, as well as the shops along Stewardson Way. If you are feeling more adventurous, the 22nd Street Skytrain station in your neighborhood quickly connects you with premium shopping and dining in downtown New Westminster, Burnaby, Downtown Vancouver, and the rest of the lower mainland.
