Port Moody’s walkable transit-and-waterfront hub — SkyTrain + West Coast Express
The short answer
Moody Centre is Port Moody’s transit hub — the only Tri-Cities station besides Coquitlam Central with both the Evergreen SkyTrain and the West Coast Express. It puts you within walking distance of Brewers Row, Rocky Point Park, Suter Brook and Newport Village. Downtown Vancouver is roughly 40 minutes by SkyTrain, or about 30 minutes by West Coast Express.
Moody Centre is the rare spot that combines genuine transit with genuine lifestyle. The station sits beside Port Moody’s brewery district and a short walk from the Burrard Inlet waterfront, while newer condo development around it has made car-light living realistic in a city better known for detached homes.
| Line | Millennium Line (Evergreen Extension) |
|---|---|
| City | Port Moody (Moody Centre) |
| Opened | December 2016 |
| Rail connections | Evergreen SkyTrain + West Coast Express commuter rail |
| At the door | Brewers Row, Rocky Point Park, inlet trails |
| Housing | Newer condos & townhomes; walkable to the waterfront |
Like Coquitlam Central, Moody Centre offers two rail options. The Evergreen SkyTrain reaches downtown Vancouver in roughly 40 minutes (with an Expo Line transfer), and the West Coast Express runs directly to Waterfront Station in about 30 minutes on weekday commuter schedules — one of the faster downtown commutes in the Tri-Cities.
That dual-rail access, in a compact and walkable setting, is a big part of why Moody Centre has drawn so much transit-oriented development.
Newer condos and townhomes cluster around the station, offering a walkable, car-light lifestyle that’s unusual for Port Moody. It’s the entry point into Port Moody for many buyers who can’t stretch to the city’s detached or Heritage Mountain prices.
You get Port Moody’s signature lifestyle — inlet, breweries, Rocky Point — paired with the convenience of two rail lines, which is a genuinely distinctive combination in Metro Vancouver.
Brewers Row — Port Moody’s cluster of craft breweries — is at the doorstep, with Rocky Point Park, the Shoreline Trail, and the Burrard Inlet a short walk away. Suter Brook Village and Newport Village add grocery, dining, and services within easy reach.
It’s arguably the most lifestyle-rich transit station in the Tri-Cities: rapid transit, waterfront, and a walkable food-and-drink scene in one place.
