Station Square Redevelopment

The challenge was to create a distinctive sense of place which was achieved through the use of public expression and an emphasis on high quality public realm to create a series of spaces and experiences.

Tower forms were located to allow maximum light and sun into the shopping street and to establish Station Square as a unique and visible landmark for Burnaby.

The plan includes:

• Direct access to a regional transit station;
• ‘Silver Drive’ retail shopping street including grocer, restaurants, cinema, and major retail anchors;
• Office space for 1,500 jobs;
• Five new landmark residential towers creating 2,500 dwelling units; and,
• Green roof amenities including a children’s play area, barbecue, and outdoor dining patio, fitness centre, and yoga studio.
