The area\u2019s heritage rules are designed to protect existing buildings and preserve the neighbourhood\u2019s historic character.<\/p>\n<p>Before making an offer, investigate the property\u2019s heritage status and confirm whether it is subject to specific protections or guidelines. Review the home\u2019s renovation history, prior permits, and any outstanding work with the City of New Westminster. This information can help you understand what has already been approved and what may require further review.<\/p>\n<p>If you are considering an addition, new windows, siding, or other exterior changes, confirm whether heritage approval will be required.
