First and Royal is a 189-unit wood-frame presale development by Areva Living, located at 82 1st Street in the Albert Crescent Precinct of New Westminster. Designed by Iredale Group Architecture with interiors by Portico Design Group, the project offers two- and three-bedroom condominiums and townhouses ranging from 807 to 968 square feet. Priced from $754,900 to $839,900 with an average of $902 per square foot, First and Royal represents a refined addition to New Westminster’s growing residential landscape.
Situated at the corner of First Street and Royal Avenue in the heart of Downtown New Westminster, the community enjoys immediate access to local restaurants, shops, and everyday conveniences. Steps from Stefano’s, Met Pasta & Grill, and Safeway, the project’s Albert Crescent Precinct location also puts New Westminster SkyTrain station and the scenic waterfront promenade within easy reach — ideal for commuters and urban dwellers alike.
Areva Living drew on their experience with heritage preservation projects — including Columbia Theatre and EMN Woods Cottage — to inform First and Royal’s design ethos. Iredale Group Architecture’s exterior reflects a thoughtful integration with New Westminster’s historic streetscape, while Portico Design Group’s interiors bring contemporary finishes and nine-foot ceilings to each residence. Amenities include outdoor spaces and a fitness facility designed to complement an active New Westminster lifestyle.
Sales for First and Royal launched in October 2022, with construction beginning in Fall 2024 and completion reached in June 2026. The development is now 95% sold out, with a select collection of two- and three-bedroom Family Collection homes still available. For those seeking a well-located, design-forward home in one of Metro Vancouver’s most connected communities, First and Royal delivers exceptional value in the heart of New Westminster.
