Despite political uncertainty and economic headwinds that have rattled the real estate market in recent months, a transformative development in Coquitlam broke ground last week.
Award-winning Vancouver development group Qualex-Landmark was joined by city officials and stakeholders when they broke ground on their Ironwood Development on May 6th.

Located in the heart of West Coquitlam’s Oakdale neighbourhood, Ironwood is expected to complete by 2028. It consists of a residential tower and one six-storey residential strata building comprising 446 one-, two- and three-bedroom homes ranging from 485 to 1,612 square feet.
What makes this project truly remarkable is that it includes 18 affordable rental for single mothers and their children through a proud partnership with the YWCA Metro Vancouver and BC Housing.
