When does Oakridge Park complete?

Oakridge Park is a phased master-plan development, not a single completion date. Vancouver City Council approved the rezoning in 2014; the major Special Plan was approved in 2016 (verify exact dates against the City of Vancouver Council minutes). Phased completion runs 2026–2028 for the bulk of the residential towers, with some elements (parts of the rooftop park, retail mall core, civic-use components) opening progressively from 2024 onward. Each tower has its own occupancy date — buyers comparing presales should ask for the estimated completion on the specific tower, not on "Oakridge Park" as a whole.

Who is developing Oakridge Park?

Oakridge Park is a partnership between Westbank (the Vancouver-based developer behind Vancouver House, Telus Garden, and Mirvish Village in Toronto) and QuadReal Property Group (the BC Investment Management Corporation real-estate platform that holds the underlying long-term ownership interest). Westbank leads the design and development execution; QuadReal is the long-term institutional owner. Henriquez Partners Architects is the design lead, with a roster of architects engaged per tower.

How does the Oakridge Park presale price compare to resale?

Presales at Oakridge Park price into a 2026–2028 completion window — buyers are committing capital today against a unit they will receive years later, with deposits typically structured across the construction period. The presale-vs-resale spread on Cambie Corridor concrete tower stock has historically run a premium for new-construction product (warranty, modern floor plates, GST-new-housing-rebate eligibility net of full GST liability) offset by deposit-tie-up, completion-risk, and assignment-restriction discounts. The honest practitioner answer: the spread is unit-specific and changes with rate cycles. Compare a specific presale floor plan against a comparable resale unit on the same Cambie Corridor block before assuming either is cheaper.

What is the strata fee outlook for 2,600+ units?

Strata fees at Oakridge Park reflect a unique cost structure for Vancouver: Neighbourhood Energy Utility (NEU) district energy in place of per-tower gas; a 9-acre rooftop park requiring landscaping, irrigation, and security; a shared retail mall core with strata-residential cost-sharing arrangements that flow through Reciprocal Easement Agreements (REAs); and a civic-component allocation (library, performing arts centre, childcare) negotiated into the master plan. The honest practitioner answer: strata fees on this product class will not be the cheapest in the Cambie Corridor — the amenity load is meaningfully higher than a typical 200-unit standalone tower. Read the disclosure statement and the depreciation report for each tower before assuming a rule-of-thumb $/sq ft figure carries over.

How does Oakridge Park affect Cambie Corridor strata pricing?

Oakridge Park is the largest single concentration of new strata supply ever delivered to one Vancouver intersection. During the 2026–2028 construction-overhang window, that concentrated supply pushes against Cambie Corridor resale pricing — buyers can sit on the sideline and absorb the new product without bidding up older inventory. Post-buildout, the amenity step-change (mall reset, civic centre, library, 9-acre park, full transit-oriented retail) is the single largest neighbourhood-grade upgrade in recent Vancouver history. The longer-arc effect on Cambie Corridor strata pricing is positive; the construction-phase effect on resale specifically is the opposite. Time the entry against your hold horizon — see the construction-cycle discussion in the housing-cycles guide.

Which school catchment does Oakridge Park fall into?

Oakridge Park is in the Eric Hamber Secondary catchment (Vancouver School Board / SD 39) for the Cambie Corridor. Some address-specific details may shift depending on the tower's exact street address; some adjacent Oakridge / South Cambie addresses fall to other catchments. The only reliable way to confirm catchment for a specific tower's address is to plug it into VSB myschoolfinder. Eric Hamber is also a French Immersion continuation site, which matters if you are buying for a school-priority household.

Does Bill 47 transit-oriented development zoning apply at Oakridge Park?

Yes — Oakridge Park sits inside the Bill 47 Transit-Oriented Areas (TOA) radii around the Oakridge–41st Avenue Canada Line station, which is a Tier 1 station under the Province's TOD framework. The TOA designation interacts with the existing Cambie Corridor Plan + Oakridge Special Plan; the project's density was already negotiated through the rezoning process before Bill 47 took effect, so Bill 47 is not the operative density-setter for the master plan itself. The TOA radii do, however, affect surrounding properties — neighbouring South Cambie + Oakridge parcels inside the 200m / 400m / 800m bands have meaningfully expanded permitted density. See the transit-oriented development guide for the full TOA framework.

Oakridge Park is the Westbank + QuadReal redevelopment of the ~28-acre former Oakridge Centre Mall site at West 41st Avenue + Cambie Street, Vancouver — at the time of the 2014 rezoning approval, the largest mall-to-mixed-use redevelopment in Canadian history. Publicly cited scale: ~4.5M sq ft, ~2,600+ residential units across 13 high-rise towers, a 9-acre rooftop park, a reset retail mall core, and a civic-use package (community / civic centre, library, performing arts centre, childcare) baked into the master plan. The site sits on top of the Oakridge–41st Avenue Canada Line station. Companion to the Oakridge pillar and the Bill 47 transit-oriented development guide.

The defendable opinion

Oakridge Park is doing two things at once that almost no other Vancouver project does — and most listing materials only describe one of them. It is a strata-residential investment (presale or resale), and it is simultaneously a neighbourhood-grade amenity step-change for the Cambie Corridor that affects every parcel within 1–2 km. Buyers underwriting the strata investment in isolation are mispricing the public-realm dividend; surrounding-area buyers underwriting Cambie Corridor resale on pre-Oakridge-Park comparables are anchoring on a neighbourhood that is no longer the same neighbourhood. Both groups need to think about the construction-overhang window (2026–2028) and the post-buildout step-change separately.

Master plan — what gets built

Residential — ~2,600+ units across 13 high-rise towers
Concrete high-rise towers ringing the rooftop park and retail core. Tower count and unit count are publicly cited figures from the developer team and the Cambie Corridor / Oakridge Special Plan; per-tower bedroom mix and the social / non-market component have been refined through development-permit submissions. Verify per-tower mix on each individual listing.
Retail mall core — full mall reset
The original 1959 Oakridge Centre has been replaced with a substantially expanded retail core integrated under and around the residential towers. The program targets a flagship anchor + premium specialty + food + services format; tenancy is disclosed by the developer team in stages.
9-acre rooftop park
A publicly accessible park above the retail core, programmed with playgrounds, gardens, and circulation paths. The park is one of the defining features of the Oakridge Special Plan and a key part of how the project trades higher density for public-realm amenity.
Civic centre + library + performing arts centre + childcare
Civic-use components delivered to the City of Vancouver as part of the rezoning community-benefit package: a community / civic centre, an Oakridge branch library, a performing arts centre, and childcare spaces. Funded and built into the master plan rather than negotiated separately.
Neighbourhood Energy Utility (NEU) district energy
A low-carbon district energy connection in place of per-tower gas boilers. NEU terms flow through to strata fee structures and individual unit utility billing — confirm the per-unit allocation method on the disclosure statement.

Component scale is the publicly cited project description from the developer team and the City of Vancouver. Verify against the live oakridgepark.com and the City project file before underwriting any per-unit assumption.

Phasing — what is complete vs. under construction

Oakridge Park is a phased master-plan project, not a single occupancy event. Residential completion runs 2026 through 2028 for the bulk of the towers, with the rooftop park, retail core, and civic-use components opening progressively from 2024 onward. Each tower has its own occupancy date — ask for estimated completion + assignment terms on the specific tower, not the project as a whole. Practitioner note: deposit structures on this product class typically stretch across the construction window. For buyers tying up six-figure deposits across a multi-year build, the opportunity cost of deposit-tied capital is part of the true cost of acquisition — run the deposit-cost math against your alternative-use return assumption before signing.

On-site Canada Line + Eric Hamber catchment

The Oakridge–41st Avenue Canada Line station sits on the south side of the site. Built by TransLink in 2009 to serve the legacy mall, it is now the fully integrated rapid-transit anchor for the redevelopment. Travel times: Vancouver City Centre under 15 minutes, YVR Airport under 15 minutes, Richmond–Brighouse under 20 minutes (verify against the live TransLink schedule). Without on-site rapid transit, this site would not underwrite anywhere close to the publicly cited 4.5M sq ft of mixed-use density.

Schools: Oakridge Park sits inside the Eric Hamber Secondary catchment (VSB / SD 39) — the established Cambie-Corridor secondary serving the Oakridge / South Cambie / Riley Park grid, with a French Immersion continuation track. Some adjacent addresses fall to other VSB secondaries; confirm via VSB myschoolfinder for the specific unit address.

Cambie Corridor Plan + Bill 47 TOD overlay

Oakridge Park's density was negotiated through the City of Vancouver's Cambie Corridor Plan (Phase 3) and the project-specific Oakridge Special Plan, approved by Council in 2014–2016 — pre-dating the Province's 2023 transit-oriented-areas legislation. The master plan's density was already locked in before Bill 47 took effect. Bill 47 still matters for surrounding properties: the Oakridge–41st Avenue station is a Tier 1 TOA station — the strictest provincial floor, with mandatory minimum density entitlements at 200m / 400m / 800m radii. Every parcel inside those radii now carries an expanded density floor the City cannot reject below. For investors evaluating South Cambie / Oakridge / Marpole-north / Riley Park parcels neighbouring the site, the Bill 47 entitlement is part of the underwriting picture — see the Bill 47 TOD guide.

Buyer pricing — construction overhang vs. amenity step-change

The construction-overhang window (now through ~2028). A 2,600+ unit concentrated supply hitting one Vancouver intersection in a phased 5–7 year window is, mathematically, a localized supply shock. Surrounding resale inventory faces direct competition from new-construction product with developer marketing budgets, modern floor plates, and warranty coverage. Cambie Corridor resale buyers in this window have a real seat at the table they did not have in 2018.

The amenity step-change (post-buildout). After the master plan delivers the 9-acre rooftop park, the reset mall, the library, the performing arts centre, the civic centre, and the childcare components, the Oakridge node becomes one of the most amenity-dense urban places on the Canada Line. Buyers underwriting Cambie Corridor strata on pre-Oakridge-Park comparables are pricing a neighbourhood that no longer exists. How to time it: a 2-year flip gets the overhang and may miss the step-change; a 7-year hold eats the overhang and captures the step-change; a presale completing in 2027–2028 splits the difference. Match the hold to the entry point.

Strata fees + NEU + amenity allocation — the honest version

Strata fees on Oakridge Park reflect a more complex cost structure than a typical 200-unit standalone Vancouver concrete tower. Three line items materially differ:

Neighbourhood Energy Utility (NEU) — district-energy connection in place of per-tower gas boilers. Per-unit allocation flows through strata fees + utility billing in a different shape than a standalone tower; read the disclosure statement.
Reciprocal Easement Agreements (REAs) — the residential strata sits above and beside a retail mall core and civic-use components. Cost-sharing for shared building elements (foundations, mechanical, life-safety, security) flows through REAs binding the residential strata to the retail / civic components. Legal review of the REA before subject-removal matters more than on a standalone tower.
9-acre rooftop park + amenity allocation — landscape, irrigation, security, and programming on a 9-acre rooftop park is not a typical strata-amenity line item. Some load sits with the broader master plan; some flows through residential strata. Read the depreciation report.

The honest practitioner answer: strata fees on this product class will not be the cheapest in the Cambie Corridor — the amenity load is meaningfully higher than a 200-unit standalone tower. The rule-of-thumb $/sq ft figure carried over from other Cambie Corridor concrete buildings does not transfer cleanly. Read each tower's specific disclosure statement.

Frequently asked questions

When does Oakridge Park complete?
Oakridge Park is a phased master-plan development, not a single completion date. Vancouver City Council approved the rezoning in 2014; the major Special Plan was approved in 2016 (verify exact dates against the City of Vancouver Council minutes). Phased completion runs 2026–2028 for the bulk of the residential towers, with some elements (parts of the rooftop park, retail mall core, civic-use components) opening progressively from 2024 onward. Each tower has its own occupancy date — buyers comparing presales should ask for the estimated completion on the specific tower, not on "Oakridge Park" as a whole.
Who is developing Oakridge Park?
Oakridge Park is a partnership between Westbank (the Vancouver-based developer behind Vancouver House, Telus Garden, and Mirvish Village in Toronto) and QuadReal Property Group (the BC Investment Management Corporation real-estate platform that holds the underlying long-term ownership interest). Westbank leads the design and development execution; QuadReal is the long-term institutional owner. Henriquez Partners Architects is the design lead, with a roster of architects engaged per tower.
How does the Oakridge Park presale price compare to resale?
Presales at Oakridge Park price into a 2026–2028 completion window — buyers are committing capital today against a unit they will receive years later, with deposits typically structured across the construction period. The presale-vs-resale spread on Cambie Corridor concrete tower stock has historically run a premium for new-construction product (warranty, modern floor plates, GST-new-housing-rebate eligibility net of full GST liability) offset by deposit-tie-up, completion-risk, and assignment-restriction discounts. The honest practitioner answer: the spread is unit-specific and changes with rate cycles. Compare a specific presale floor plan against a comparable resale unit on the same Cambie Corridor block before assuming either is cheaper.
What is the strata fee outlook for 2,600+ units?
Strata fees at Oakridge Park reflect a unique cost structure for Vancouver: Neighbourhood Energy Utility (NEU) district energy in place of per-tower gas; a 9-acre rooftop park requiring landscaping, irrigation, and security; a shared retail mall core with strata-residential cost-sharing arrangements that flow through Reciprocal Easement Agreements (REAs); and a civic-component allocation (library, performing arts centre, childcare) negotiated into the master plan. The honest practitioner answer: strata fees on this product class will not be the cheapest in the Cambie Corridor — the amenity load is meaningfully higher than a typical 200-unit standalone tower. Read the disclosure statement and the depreciation report for each tower before assuming a rule-of-thumb $/sq ft figure carries over.
How does Oakridge Park affect Cambie Corridor strata pricing?
Oakridge Park is the largest single concentration of new strata supply ever delivered to one Vancouver intersection. During the 2026–2028 construction-overhang window, that concentrated supply pushes against Cambie Corridor resale pricing — buyers can sit on the sideline and absorb the new product without bidding up older inventory. Post-buildout, the amenity step-change (mall reset, civic centre, library, 9-acre park, full transit-oriented retail) is the single largest neighbourhood-grade upgrade in recent Vancouver history. The longer-arc effect on Cambie Corridor strata pricing is positive; the construction-phase effect on resale specifically is the opposite. Time the entry against your hold horizon — see the construction-cycle discussion in the housing-cycles guide.
Which Canada Line station serves Oakridge Park?
Oakridge–41st Avenue Canada Line station sits at the south side of the Oakridge Park site at West 41st Avenue + Cambie Street — direct, on-site rapid-transit access. The station was originally built to serve the legacy Oakridge Centre mall and is now the integrated transit anchor for the redevelopment. Travel times: Vancouver City Centre via Canada Line in under 15 minutes; YVR Airport via Canada Line in under 15 minutes; downtown Richmond via Canada Line in under 20 minutes. The on-site station is the single largest reason this site supports the publicly cited 4.5M sq ft of mixed-use density.
Which school catchment does Oakridge Park fall into?
Oakridge Park is in the Eric Hamber Secondary catchment (Vancouver School Board / SD 39) for the Cambie Corridor. Some address-specific details may shift depending on the tower's exact street address; some adjacent Oakridge / South Cambie addresses fall to other catchments. The only reliable way to confirm catchment for a specific tower's address is to plug it into VSB myschoolfinder. Eric Hamber is also a French Immersion continuation site, which matters if you are buying for a school-priority household.
Does Bill 47 transit-oriented development zoning apply at Oakridge Park?
Yes — Oakridge Park sits inside the Bill 47 Transit-Oriented Areas (TOA) radii around the Oakridge–41st Avenue Canada Line station, which is a Tier 1 station under the Province's TOD framework. The TOA designation interacts with the existing Cambie Corridor Plan + Oakridge Special Plan; the project's density was already negotiated through the rezoning process before Bill 47 took effect, so Bill 47 is not the operative density-setter for the master plan itself. The TOA radii do, however, affect surrounding properties — neighbouring South Cambie + Oakridge parcels inside the 200m / 400m / 800m bands have meaningfully expanded permitted density. See the transit-oriented development guide for the full TOA framework.
