Niagara is built with character.
From its earliest days as a collection of villages, Niagara has slowly morphed into a character-filled, history-oozing region made up of 12 unique municipalities.
At McGarr Realty, we’ve seen some beautiful architecture when it comes to selling and buying homes in St. Catharines and throughout Niagara, but amazing architecture isn’t limited to residential real estate offerings. Niagara is a place that’s full of Canadian history reminders as well as forward thinking impressive architectural feats.
The possibilities for day travel right within Niagara are exciting - you don’t actually need to leave home to see something awesome.
Niagara’s 12 municipalities and the areas beyond are filled with historic markers and buildings, interesting monuments, living history reminders, museums, restored architectural gems, and so much more.
Some of our cities offer neighbourhoods where buildings date to the area’s earliest settlements. Preservation efforts throughout the region allow us to experience the past as it has blended with the future.
Taking day trips to each municipality offers visitors a chance to get a feel for this community, and learn a bit about its past, too.

As you pass through the towns and cities that make up Niagara, you can’t help but notice older architectural styles surrounded by newer buildings, older industry and residential properties co-existing peacefully, and older residential neighbourhoods sporting old-growth trees, character-filled homes and wide, expansive lawns.
Occasionally, you’ll see a two-storey farmhouse in the middle of a residential neighbourhood, surrounded by bungalows and townhomes.
The past blends with the future here, and character stands out as Niagara shows its respect for heritage.
