Condo living at the doorstep of Coquitlam Centre on the Evergreen Line
The short answer
Lincoln Station sits right at Coquitlam Centre, surrounded by newer condo towers — arguably the most walkable shop-and-transit pocket in the Tri-Cities. Downtown Vancouver is roughly 43–45 minutes by SkyTrain (with an Expo Line transfer), and the mall, dining, and Lafarge Lake are all within a short walk.
Lincoln is the “live above the mall” station. It opened in 2016 in the heart of Coquitlam Town Centre and is ringed by recent high-rise development. For buyers who want a newer condo where you can leave the car at home for daily errands, Lincoln is as convenient as the Tri-Cities gets.
| Line | Millennium Line (Evergreen Extension) |
|---|---|
| City | Coquitlam (Town Centre) |
| Opened | December 2016 |
| At the door | Coquitlam Centre mall + Town Centre retail |
| Key connection | A few stops to Lougheed; transfer there to Expo Line |
| Housing | Newer high-rise condos; very walkable |
Downtown Vancouver is roughly 43–45 minutes by SkyTrain via an Expo Line transfer, and Lougheed Town Centre (the Millennium/Expo interchange) is a few stops away. Coquitlam Central — with its West Coast Express and bus exchange — is the very next station, so you have a second rail option one stop away.
For most daily trips, though, the appeal of Lincoln is that you barely need transit at all: the mall and Town Centre amenities are at your doorstep.
Housing is dominated by newer high-rise condos, many built in the development wave around Coquitlam Centre. This is prime territory for first-time buyers, downsizers, and investors who want a low-maintenance home in the most amenity-dense part of Coquitlam.
As with the other Town Centre stations, you trade yard space for walkability and convenience — a trade that suits a lot of buyers at this price point.
Coquitlam Centre, the region’s major mall, is essentially at the station, with extensive dining, services, and big-box retail along the Town Centre and Lougheed corridors. Lafarge Lake and Town Centre Park are a short walk or one stop away for recreation.
Few Metro Vancouver suburbs offer this much within a 5–10 minute walk of a SkyTrain platform.
