Crescent Valley | South End | Waterloo Village | Old North End | Lower West Side

The west side of Saint John is divided by bridges and for many it remains a distinct entity. These sense of pride on the West Side is palpable, however this pride has been slowly depleted as conditions worsened on the Lower West Side throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s.

But this is a resilient neighbourhood. The community has organized itself to enhance the quality of life of its residents. The Carleton Community Centre is the anchor of the community where children and youth come to learn and play in a safe environment. The West Side PACT (Police and Community Together) was created in 2006 and a building was constructed in 2007 to house offices for community organizing, police, and fire protection.
