Coquitlam is the fifth largest city in Greater Vancouver, in the Canadian province of British Columbia. Similarly to the Greater Vancouver municipalities of Burnaby and Surrey, Coquitlam has seen an influx of residential high-rises in the early 21st century. The city is home to 14 buildings over 100 metres (328 ft) tall, 4 of which are taller than 150 metres (492 ft) as of 2026. There are two primary concentrations of tall buildings in Coquitlam: one in Coquitlam Town Centre, and the other in Burquitlam, on the city's western border with Burnaby. The tallest building in Coquitlam is 567 Clarke + Como, a , 49-storey residential skyscraper completed in Burquitlam in 2021.
Coquitlam Town Centre was first developed as the city's commercial centre in the 1970s, with the Coquitlam Centre shopping mall opening in 1979. The district has become home to numerous high-rise buildings since the 1990s, and contained the highest concentration of high-rise condominiums in the Tri-Cities by 2009.City of Coquitlam: Retail Retrieved on 1 March 2009 The 2000s saw an increase in the height of new towers, which started to reach over 100 m (328 ft) in height. The title of the tallest building in the city changed hands four times between 2008 and 2016. Recent development has been transit-oriented, spurred by the Evergreen Extension completed in 2016. Part of the Millennium Line of Greater Vancouver's SkyTrain system, the extension added the Coquitlam Central, Lincoln, and Lafarge Lake–Douglas stations, all in close proximity to the town centre.
The Evergreen Extension also connected Burquitlam to the SkyTrain system, via Burquitlam station. Since then, many high-rises have risen around the station, to the extent that Burquitlam's skyline is roughly equivalent in size to that of Coquitlam Town Centre. Burquitlam contains the five tallest buildings in Coquitlam. 567 Clarke + Como, which was the first building in Coquitlam to exceed 150 m (492 ft) in height, was later joined by Highpoint, Myriad by Concert, and Smith & Farrow I in 2025. Several towers directly south of Burquitlam form a continuous skyline with the high-rises of Lougheed, which is across the municipal border in Burnaby.
