Downtown Fredericton, on the south side of the river, contains the city's historic buildings. The grand Legislative Building and Christ Church Cathedral date back to some 300 years of history. The University of New Brunswick and St. Thomas University are also in this part of the city. The northside of the city are largely suburban neighbourhoods with service and retail businesses.
