Woodland Park

EDGAR and BC Housing are proposing to redevelop Woodland Park, over the next 15 - 20 years, into a master planned, well-served community with an innovative mix of housing, significant parks and open space, child care and neighbourhood retail. EDGAR and BC Housing have applied to the City of Port Moody for an Official Community Plan amendment and rezoning, to allow for additional uses, height and density.

Woodland Park is situated among some of Port Moody’s greatest green space, close to schools, recreation facilities, and a twenty-minute walk to neighbourhood shops and services.
