The historic buildings have been restored to their original glory, showcasing the intricate details of the stonework, and reflecting the elegant architecture of yesteryear.

Visitors can take a step back in time and experience what life was like in the early days of the city. Another notable landmark is the Cambridge Sculpture Garden, where visitors can enjoy a walk through the tranquil and artistic atmosphere that features sculptures from local artists.

The theatre features a diverse range of performances, from musicals to plays, and everything in between. The performers are always top-notch, and the atmosphere is electric.

For those who love the hustle and bustle of city life, the Gaslight District is the perfect location. It is a short walk across the river to Downtown Galt, where you can enjoy shopping, dining, and entertainment options that cater to a variety of tastes. With the area's recent revitalization, new restaurants, cafes, and shops are popping up all the time, making the neighbourhood an exciting destination for locals and visitors alike.

Public school children living in the Gaslight District will attend either Blair Road or Highland for grades JK-6 before moving on to St. Andrew’s for grades 7-8.
