A large portion of Coquitlam West is currently undergoing major redevelopment. The City's official community plan has rezoned much of the area West of Dogwood St to High Density housing which is in large part due to the new Evergreen Line that is scheduled for completion by the summer of 2016. Coquitlam West real estate could very well be the Lower Mainland's next real estate hot-spot. There are also major redevelopment plans coming up for the areas around Lougheed Mall over the next 20 years.
