The East Burnaby area is generally the area bordering New Westminster, and includes the areas of Edmonds Town Centre, moving East towards the Burnaby crest area and Cariboo Road.

This area is typified by existing single family housing stock, some newer townhome developments, and higher density forms of development, particularly in the Edmonds Town Centre area. Major high density projects in this area include Ledingham McAllister developing the 40+ acre Safeway site, and Amacon developing the site currently occupied by Mott Electric.
