There is a transformation happening where the borders of Burnaby and Coquitlam meet. For years, this pocket was seen as a quiet transit hub, but in 2026, it has officially matured into Metro Vancouver’s most vibrant "urban-suburban" hybrid.
West Coquitlam—specifically the enclave around Westview Street—has become a masterclass in neighbourhood design. It’s a rare pocket where you can grab a curated pour-over coffee at a local bistro, hop on the SkyTrain at Lougheed Town Centre for a stress-free commute to Downtown Vancouver, and be back in time for a sunset walk through the lush trails of Brookmere Park—all without ever touching your car keys.
As the 2026 spring market blooms, we are seeing a "flight to quality." Discerning buyers are moving away from the congestion of the city core in favour of larger footprints, better views, and resort-level lifestyle amenities that make staying home feel like a getaway.
Resort Living as the Standard
Nowhere is this shift more evident than in the architectural landmarks defining the skyline. Modern residents are no longer satisfied with just a gym and a lobby. They are looking for Hensley by Cressey, a building that has set a new benchmark for luxury in the area.
The amenity package here reads more like a five-star hotel than a residential tower. The "Hensley Health Club" offers a ground-level escape with an outdoor pool, covered hot tub, and private cabanas that feel worlds away from the city. But the real showstopper is the triple-height penthouse "Sky Club"—a glass-enclosed sanctuary in the clouds featuring a Zen garden and panoramic views that remind you exactly why we live in the Pacific Northwest.
The Listing: A Masterclass in the "Cressey Kitchen"
If you’ve been looking for the perfect entry point into this lifestyle, Suite 807 at 450 Westview Street is currently the standout choice.
This south-facing, two-bedroom home captures the essence of refined Coquitlam living. Spanning 846 square feet of intelligently designed space, the interior is anchored by the world-renowned Cressey Kitchen™. For the home chef, this is the gold standard: an integrated 48" double Blomberg fridge, Jenn-Air stainless steel appliances, and a stunning slab porcelain backsplash paired with quartz countertops.
Key Features of Suite 807:
Climate Comfort: Full air conditioning for those increasingly warm BC summers.
Outdoor Flow: A massive balcony, perfect for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine while taking in the mountain vistas.
The Extras: Includes one secure parking stall and a dedicated storage locker.
Lifestyle: Full access to the concierge, steam room, sauna, and the iconic rooftop Sky Club.
In a market where "cookie-cutter" is common, this suite offers a level of finish and a suite of amenities that are increasingly difficult to find at this price point. It isn't just a condo; it’s an invitation to join Coquitlam’s most exciting new chapter.
