NAME ORIGIN: Willow trees grow around the world. As such, it is a part of the writings and beliefs of various religions and cultures. In North America, the Weeping Willow Tree is most often associated with water, movement, adaptability and optimism. 94 Forest Hill Road was the site of a beautiful old Weeping Willow Tree that stood tall at the back of the property, proudly perched on the bank, overlooking the Saint John River. In July 2007, a destructive wind and rainstorm blew down the beautiful old tree. In memory of the Forest Hill Weeping Willow Tree, “The Willow” was constructed to be situated similarly perched tall on the bank, offering its many residents the same beautiful views of the Saint John River once held by the old Tree. HISTORY: Construction of The Willow began in the spring of 2021 and opened its doors to its first tenants in March of 2023.
