As Coquitlam continues its surge as one of Metro Vancouver’s fastest-growing urban hubs, 2026 looks to be a landmark year for pre-construction condos. Between transit expansions, rising demand, and developers pushing more ambitious projects, several exciting new communities are on the horizon.
One of the most notable upcoming projects is Portico Coquitlam by Wanson Group in West Coquitlam’s Oakdale neighbourhood. Slated for spring 2026, Portico will offer 145 units in a modern six-storey building, a mix of 1- to 3-bedroom layouts, with amenities that include courtyards, lounges, and children’s play areas. Its proximity to Burquitlam SkyTrain Station gives it strong appeal for commuters.
Another project gaining attention is Botanica by Qualex-Landmark, also expected in 2026. Located in Oakdale (between Kemsley & Harrison avenues), Botanica combines condos and townhomes in a mid-rise setting. For those looking for something larger, Myriad, a high-rise development in Burquitlam, is scheduled for completion in 2026 with several hundred units.
Also worth noting is Terrayne in Burke Mountain, a more low-rise / mid-rise option aimed at families, offering spacious floor plans and often more outdoor-oriented community design.
What This Means for Buyers & Investors
- Transit plays a huge role. Many of the 2026 projects are clustered around SkyTrain stations, especially Burquitlam and Oakdale, making commuting easier and boosting resale value.
- Variety of housing types. Whether you want a high-rise condo, a mid-rise, or a townhouse, there are options emerging, with floor plans ranging from compact one-beds up to roomy family units.
- More competition & price pressure. With many developments entering presale or early construction in 2026, buyers will have choices—but the best units will likely sell fast. Early decision-makers may lock in better pricing or incentives.
- Lifestyle features matter. Expect more amenities: green spaces, community lounges, child-friendly features, plus walkability to shops, restaurants, parks.
