Highest Tower in Coquitlam Offers Too Little Parking, Says Council
The Tri-City News – Highest tower in Coquitlam offers too little parking, says council.
A proposal for a 43-storey tower in Coquitlam’s Town Centre raised eyebrows at Monday’s council meeting, but it wasn’t because of the neck-craning height of the building.
At 43 storeys, the Metropolitan 3 (M3) will be the highest building in Coquitlam. Other buildings in the Cressey project include the Metropolitan 1 (M1) at 27 storeys and the Metropolitan 2 (M2), which is under construction and will be 25 storeys.
But despite the big numbers, council members weren’t focusing on how high the tower would rise but on what’s missing down below: parking.
