Project updates

Fall 2025: Construction is progressing with detailed excavation now complete and foundation concrete work on the east side of the site. Wall pouring is taking place on the west side of the site. Concrete pouring will continue throughout the site over the next several months. 

Tree replacement

Burnaby values our trees. As part of this project, we will be planting 779 new trees to replace the 166 trees that were removed during construction. We strive to plant replacement trees on public property as close to the original location as possible, in keeping with City’s Tree Bylaw and Tree Management Policy for Public Lands.
