Lincoln Station opened in December 2016 as part of the Evergreen Extension, turning a previously quiet stretch of Pinetree Way into the fastest-growing transit-oriented node in Coquitlam. Every condo within a 10-minute walk now trades on a transit premium — and knowing which buildings actually earn it is the whole game.
Craig has closed transactions in every tower inside Lincoln's walkshed and tracks which buildings outperform on resale, rental yield, and liveability. This page breaks down inventory, commute data, schools, and the specific buy-decisions that matter for the Lincoln market.

Lincoln Station opened in December 2016 as part of the Evergreen Extension, turning a previously quiet stretch of Pinetree Way into the fastest-growing tra Craig Johnston, Top 1% Team — Greater Vancouver REALTORS®, 2023–2025 and 47+ year Tri-Cities resident, can walk you through the local context. Free Strategy Call ends with a written one-page plan in 24 hours.
Every number below is platform-to-platform, drawn from TransLink's published schedules as of June 2026 — not the optimistic estimates you'll see on real-estate listings.
The 5-minute walkshed around Lincoln Station is defined by Pinetree Way (east), Glen Drive (south), and Westwood Street (west). It captures roughly 12 high-rise towers — Evergreen Phase 1, Windsor Gate, and the Oakridge developments — plus the Coquitlam Centre mall across Pinetree. The 10-minute walkshed stretches to Douglas College, Lafarge Lake, and the David Avenue townhome belt.
Price bands below reflect current Tri-Cities market data as of September 2026. Call for live listings — the market moves weekly at this station.
| Type | Price range | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Concrete high-rise condos | Varies by size and floor | The dominant inventory type. 1-bed (560–750 sqft) and 2-bed (850–1,100 sqft) units; prices vary by floor and building age. Windsor Gate, Oakridge Park, and Evergreen Phase 2 are the current benchmarks. |
| Townhomes (10-min walk) | Varies by complex | David Avenue / Pipeline Road belt — 3-bed 1,450–1,800 sqft side-by-side rows built 2012–2020. |
| Detached (15-min walk) | Varies by lot and condition | East Coquitlam standard lots (7,200 sqft) built 1970s–2000s. Increasingly redeveloped to 2,800+ sqft builds. |
"Lincoln is the cleanest transit-oriented play in the Tri-Cities. The rule I give clients: under $800K, the building matters more than the floor plan; over $900K, resale demands the right building AND the right view."
If you're serious about buying or selling inside this walkshed, a 20-minute strategy call puts the current inventory, the specific building dynamics, and the price you should actually be paying on the table.
1-bed and 2-bed prices vary by floor, view and building age; for reference, the September 2026 citywide Coquitlam apartment benchmark was $640,100 (GVR). Windsor Gate, Oakridge Park, and Evergreen can trade higher than surrounding inventory because of brand recognition and amenity quality.
Windsor Gate (Polygon), Oakridge Park (Concert), and Evergreen (Cressey) have the strongest resale data over the last five years. Well-managed stratas, mid-to-low SF per unit, and modern construction (2014+) drive the numbers.
Approximately 41 minutes door-to-door from Lincoln Station platform to Waterfront Station on the Millennium-Expo line combination. Express WCE peak service can trim 7–10 minutes during commuter hours.
Historically yes — Douglas College provides baseline student demand and SkyTrain draws professional renters. Gross yields run 3.8–4.4% on 1-beds bought well. Watch the strata depreciation schedule and assignment resale dynamics on pre-sales.
Lincoln is newer, higher-end, more residential in feel. Coquitlam Central is the larger transit hub (bus loop + WCE + SkyTrain) and has more mixed-use density, including the mall's core. Lincoln sits on the retail fringe; Coquitlam Central IS the retail core.
Yes — 10 minutes door-to-door via the Pinetree Way sidewalk or the pedestrian path through Town Centre Park. Lafarge Lake is the most-used park in the Tri-Cities and a major amenity for Lincoln-area residents.
