Known as "the golden mile", it hosted major department stores such as Eaton's, Kresge's and Woolworths as well as long-established New Westminster retailers. This was a time when road travel to Vancouver remained distant for Valley communities, and daily interurban rail service to and from <a href="/wiki/Chilliwack,_British_Columbia" class="mw-redirect" title="Chilliwack, British Columbia">Chilliwack</a> was still in place (the service ended in 1950). The quality of shops was such that even Vancouverites would make the trip by interurban rail or, later on, via <a href="/wiki/Kingsway_(Vancouver)" title="Kingsway (Vancouver)">Kingsway</a> (originally called the Westminster Highway or Westminster Road), to shop on Columbia Street. In addition to the retailers, Columbia Street was home to major movie houses, the Columbia and the Paramount, rivalling in size and quality to those on Vancouver's Theatre Row. The freeway and the building of suburban malls with free parking is generally conceded to have "killed" Columbia Street, which fell into a slump despite the building of a large parkade above nearby Front Street in the 50s and 60s. Department stores (other than the Army and Navy) left downtown as the Uptown area continued to develop to become New Westminster's main retail and services centre. In October 2006, Columbia Street underwent reconstruction to change to one lane in both directions, with a bike lane and reverse angle parking. This was done to encourage more foot and bicycle traffic. Major high-rise or renovation projects are completed or nearing completion. By May 2012, these include the Plaza 88 development which includes three condominium towers, the complete renovation of the Columbia which is now a cabaret style theatre for concerts, weddings and fundraisers, and the home of Lafflines Comedy Club. The new $25 million Westminster Pier Park officially opened on June 16, 2012, and a new civic centre and office tower named The Anvil Centre on Columbia Street at Begbie Street completed Sept. 2014. The Salient Group built a tower on top of the Trapp + Holbrook buildings (while restoring the facade) and another condominium called Northbank was built at the east entrance of Columbia Street. Close to the Trapp building, a major fire razed the E.L. Lewis Building and the Hamley Block on October 13, 2013, displacing 30 businesses and destroying a chunk of Columbia Street's historical character. One of the most well-known of these businesses was Copp's Shoes, which had not changed between its 1925 opening and its closure in early 2013. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Connaught_Heights">Connaught Heights</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=New_Westminster&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: Connaught Heights"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The westernmost neighbourhood in the city, Connaught Heights, began life as District Lot 172 after the Royal Engineers surveyed the land in the 1860s.

A second referendum was held in 1964, which garnered enough positive votes to make Connaught Heights Waterworks District part of New Westminster.

Added momentum came with the relocation of the public library from downtown to uptown in 1958. In 1992 Woodward's was expanded and modernized into a shopping centre and took the name Woodwards Place. With the bankruptcy of Woodward's in 1993, the name of the centre was changed to Royal City Centre Mall. Moody Park is an important recreational area in the uptown area. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="West_End">West End</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=New_Westminster&action=edit&section=15" title="Edit section: West End"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Opposite Sapperton's north end, New Westminster's West End was once fairly separate from the city proper, and has a neighbourhood commercial node along 12th Street and 20th Street approximately between London Street and Eighth Ave. The 12th Street area features antique and one-of-a-kind stores. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Westminster_Quay">Westminster Quay</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=New_Westminster&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Westminster Quay"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-right" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Westmin-quay.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Westmin-quay.jpg/220px-Westmin-quay.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="165" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Westmin-quay.jpg/330px-Westmin-quay.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/09/Westmin-quay.jpg/440px-Westmin-quay.jpg 2x" data-file-width="2272" data-file-height="1704" /></a><figcaption>Westminster Quay</figcaption></figure> <p>Westminster Quay was a mid-1980s development to revitalize New Westminster and accompanied the development of the <a href="/wiki/SkyTrain_(Vancouver)" title="SkyTrain (Vancouver)">SkyTrain</a> line to Vancouver. In addition to a large public market and a 2.5-diamond-rated hotel, The <a href="/w/index.php?title=Inn_at_the_Quay&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="Inn at the Quay (page does not exist)">Inn at the Quay</a>, a large condominium tower and townhouse complex was built, accessed from the older Columbia Street area of downtown by an overpass. The impetus provided by this project has spilled over onto the inland side of the rail tracks, with new tower developments focusing on the area southwest of 8th Street (the area known formerly as "the Swamp" and Chinatown). As of July 2007, the Quay's commercial component had noticeably decreased, with many vacancies, compared to the much more active <a href="/wiki/Lonsdale_Quay_Market" title="Lonsdale Quay Market">Lonsdale Quay Market</a> in <a href="/wiki/North_Vancouver_(city)" title="North Vancouver (city)">North Vancouver</a>. Responding to the decrease of business, the ownership group closed the Westminster Quay Market for renovations.
