NASHWAAKSIS, NEW BRUNSWICK

(Redirected from Nashwaaksis)
'Nashwaaksis' is a neighbourhood in the northern part of the city of Fredericton, New Brunswick.
Located on the east bank of the Saint John River, Nashwaaksis was settled in the 1760s following the Seven Years' War and developed into a riverfront community opposite what would become the provincial capital at Point Ste-Anne. The community grew with improved transportation links to the city, first with ferry services, then railway and road bridges, culminating in the present Westmorland Street Bridge which includes the perimeter road Route 105 around the neighbourhood.
The community of Nashwaaksis became a neighbourhood of Fredericton following municipal amalgamation in the mid-1970s.
