Metrotown, Burnaby Real Estate

Metrotown is Burnaby's downtown — the largest shopping district in BC outside of Vancouver, with high-rise condo towers clustered around the SkyTrain.

About the Neighbourhood

Metrotown Real Estate

Metrotown is the retail and transit hub of Burnaby. Metropolis at Metrotown is the largest shopping centre in British Columbia, drawing millions of visitors annually. The surrounding area has seen an explosion of high-rise residential construction over the past decade.

Condo living defines Metrotown. Tower cranes are a permanent feature of the skyline, with new presale projects launching regularly. The area appeals to young professionals, students at BCIT and SFU, and investors seeking strong rental returns.

Metrotown Station on the Expo Line connects the neighbourhood to Vancouver in 25 minutes and to Surrey in 20 minutes. The area is walkable, with grocery stores, restaurants, and services all within a few blocks. Central Park provides 90 hectares of green space with walking trails, tennis courts, and a lake.
