ABOUT TRAPP+HOLBROOK
One of the tallest buildings on Columbia Street during the Edwardian era, the landmark Trapp Block formerly housed a warehouse and offices. Additions in 1913 offered a striking new facade with unique pivot windows and handsome terra cotta tiles. The adjacent Holbrook building, a hotel and saloon, was constructed in the 1880s and rebuilt in brick, after the great fire of 1898.
Today, the Trapp and Holbrook Blocks remain as much of a landmark in the fabric of New Westminster’s historic district today as they did 100 years ago. Out of the heritage roots of Columbia and Front Streets, a new life is emerging as the neighbourhood is restored to its former glory. It’s time for modern living in historic New Westminster.
