Burquitlam is Coquitlam's most-actively-changing neighbourhood. The 2016 SkyTrain station triggered the high-rise build-out. Buyers here are betting on continued transit-oriented appreciation. The Burnaby-side City of Lougheed redevelopment will reshape the broader area through the late 2020s and 2030s.
