Hammond, often known as Port Hammond, holds deep historical roots as one of Maple Ridge’s earliest settlements along the Fraser River. Once a bustling sawmill and shipping town, it retains traces of its past in heritage homes and street layouts near the riverfront. Today Hammond has evolved into a diverse residential district with local shops, schools, and strong community ties. Parks and riverside trails keep the area green, while revitalization projects preserve its unique character. The neighbourhood offers easy access to transportation routes and maintains an authentic small-town charm. Hammond embodies history, resilience, and a growing sense of pride, connecting the legacy of the Fraser with the lifestyle of modern Maple Ridge.
