Architecture firm Stantec will design the Metropolis at Metrotown redevelopment project—a transformation of a retail mall into an iconic city centre for Burnaby, B.C.

The 14.16 ha (35 acres) site development will include the addition of residential housing, street-front retail, expansion of the current Metrotower office complex, open space, and public parks throughout the site, and new entertainment and cultural spaces.

The project will also focus on pedestrian mobility and sustainable living. Stantec plans to extend bicycle routes and pedestrian pathways to promote eco-friendly transportation.
