A COMMUNITY
INSPIRED BY HISTORY

Years ago, stone masons constructed many of the limestone and granite buildings now occupied by shops, restaurants, and businesses in Cambridge. This history has been thoughtfully woven into the design of Westwood Village, with a unique opportunity to be a revered gateway to the City of Cambridge. Extensive effort and creativity went into integrating this community with the surrounding natural, rural and urban lands.

A city in the Regional Municipality of Waterloo, Cambridge has carved out its own identity as a new city with a rich history. Formed in 1973 by the amalgamation of Galt, Preston, Hespeler and a small portion of surrounding townships, Cambridge is located at the confluence of the Grand and Speed Rivers. Cambridge is thriving and becoming more and more cosmopolitan as families find homes, robust employment opportunities and vibrant communities that enhance every lifestyle.
