Westmount Moving Companies
Westmount is a special little city, designated as one of a few true enclaves on
the island of Montreal. That is to say, it is a “separated” city within Montreal’s
borders. In 2002, Westmount was merged with the surrounding municipalities on the
Greater Island of Montreal. Four years later, the small but powerful Westmount voted
itself out of the merger, making it a city once again on January 1, 2006. It’s no
small wonder that the city’s motto is “Robur meum civium fides” – “My Strength is
the Faithfulness of my Citizens”.
It’s easy to see why those faithful citizens would want to protect their beautiful
municipality. Westmount is full of beautiful features, which may have something
to do with the fact that it has one of the highest average household incomes in
Canada. The stunning, 26-acre Westmount Park is situated right in the middle of
the neighborhood, often compared to Central Park. Westmount Square shopping and
residential complex, designed by internationally renowned architect Ludwig Mies
van der Rohe, casts its luxurious shadow over Westmount’s popular shopping district,
Greene Avenue. Westmount Library is one of the most beautiful in the Montreal area,
housed in a building over 100 years old and boasting almost 200,000 items in its
collection.
In addition to having the best in architecture, parks and services, Westmount citizens
will attest to the quality and effectiveness of their public works department. Snow
removal, hydro, community groups – even the movers in Westmount seem just a cut
above many other municipalities in Montreal. Whether you’re making a local move
or long distance move to Westmount, you’ll be amazed at the beauty of the homes
in this neighborhood. Many of them are very old, and one (the Hurtubise home) dates
back to 1739. Because of this, Westmount has some very stringent policies regarding
urban planning. If you’re thinking of renovating your future Westmount home, make
sure you check with city to obtain proper permits and to see if there are any restrictions.
