From the early ’80s, the beginning days of development along the Austin corridor, to expansion in the Westwood Plateau, Burke Mountain, and Coquitlam Centre, the city has always been growing. The densification of Coquitlam Centre has been ongoing since the early 2000s, and will continue. However, the Coquitlam neighbourhoods positioned to experience a massive change in density are Burquitlam, and Lougheed.

The redevelopment includes a walkable, high-density mixed use Neighbourhood Centre, unique residential districts, new commercial and growth opportunities and a variety of cultural and recreational activities.
