Questions Craig gets asked
The Moody Centre Station questions that come up most.
What makes Moody Centre Station unique?
It's the only Tri-Cities station where the 5-minute walkshed includes a heritage district, a brewery row, and a West Coast Express platform. The neighbourhood character is unlike any other SkyTrain stop.
Is Moody Centre Station good for families?
It depends on what you need. Port Moody Secondary is SD43's IB Diploma hub; families often compare it with Pinetree or Dr. Charles Best on programs and fit. The parks, waterfront and lifestyle are a big part of the draw.
How much more expensive is Moody Centre vs Burquitlam?
It varies by building, so compare recent sales per square foot. On GVR’s September 2026 benchmarks, Port Moody Centre apartments were $677,900 vs $664,800 for Coquitlam West, the sub-area that includes Burquitlam. Any premium reflects Port Moody's neighbourhood character, supply constraint, and waterfront access.
What's the commute to downtown Vancouver?
38 minutes on the Evergreen + Expo SkyTrain combination, or 25 minutes on the West Coast Express during peak hours. Moody Centre is one of only two Tri-Cities stations with both options.
Are there new towers being built at Moody Centre?
Yes but limited — Port Moody has slow-growth policies. Recent and in-progress projects include 50 Electronic, the Moody Yards completion, and a small number of heritage-integrated low-rises.
