Drive time to Collingwood
Living near a school does not mean a place at it. Your child's school comes from the district's catchment boundaries, and those change, so confirm the address with the district before you write an offer.

Common questions
Is the building at Joyce Station a condo or a rental?
Both exist, on opposite sides of the street: Joyce by Westbank at 5058 Joyce Street is a 256-unit Freehold Strata tower (EPS7496, finished 2021); Joyce 2 at 5083 Joyce Street is a 360-unit purpose-built rental tower. Confirm the civic address before anything else.
Can I rent out a Collingwood Village condo?
For a long-term tenancy, yes — rental-restriction bylaws have been unenforceable since November 24, 2022, and the published lines for this area's buildings (Circa described as rental-friendly; Wall Centre Central Park "rentals allowed") are consistent with that. Vancouver's Empty Homes Tax declaration still applies if the unit sits empty.
What is Collingwood Village?
The transit-oriented development around Joyce-Collingwood Station on Vanness Avenue and Oben Street: a neighbourhood source states it was completed in 2006 with 16 condo and rental buildings. Because it mixes tenures, a "Collingwood Village" address is not by itself proof a building is strata — check the strata plan on title.
How big is Wall Centre Central Park, really?
The community is published at 1,060 homes (condos and townhouses) under Strata Plan EPS3434; the 5665 Boundary Road tower alone is recorded with 623 units in strata over 36 floors. Amenities, CRF and levy exposure are community-scale — read the depreciation report for the whole plan, not just one tower.
Which schools serve a station-area address?
SD39 catchments are address-based. Schools located in the wider Renfrew-Collingwood area include Nootka Elementary (3375 Nootka Street), John Norquay Elementary (4710 Slocan Street), Renfrew Elementary (3315 East 22nd Avenue) and Windermere Secondary (3155 East 27th Avenue). Run the building's exact address in the VSB locator.
How many real townhouse complexes are there in Collingwood?
Four standalone strata complexes: Wellington Court (3683 Wellington Avenue, 1992), Rae Garden (3619 Rae Avenue, 26 townhomes, 2022), Chambers (5003/5005 Chambers Street, 10 townhomes, 2020) and 8 on Chambers (5043 Chambers Street, 8 townhomes, 2019).
Chambers and 8 on Chambers — isn't that one project counted twice?
No: the listings themselves separate them — a 10-townhome collection at 5003/5005 Chambers Street completed in 2020, and an 8-townhome collection at 5043 Chambers Street built in 2019. Same street, two stratas; read the civic address and the Form B, not the street name.
Is the tower at Joyce Station a condo or a rental?
Both exist, on opposite sides of the street: Joyce by Westbank at 5058 Joyce Street is a 256-unit Freehold Strata tower (EPS7496, finished 2021); Joyce 2 at 5083 Joyce Street is a 360-unit purpose-built rental tower, placed in receivership by court order granted April 27, 2026 with leasing reported as continuing. Confirm the civic address before anything else.
Can I buy just one side of a duplex in Collingwood?
Only if that side is legally separate — a strata lot in a 2-lot strata plan, or its own fee-simple lot from a subdivision. Check the title first.
Is Collingwood an official City of Vancouver area?
Not on its own — the City's official local area is Renfrew-Collingwood, one of its 22 distinct areas; "Collingwood" is the locality and board short name used for this page, and the City's plans and station work all use Renfrew-Collingwood.
Which schools are located in the area?
Three VSB elementaries — Nootka (3375 Nootka Street), John Norquay (4710 Slocan Street) and Renfrew (3315 East 22nd Avenue) — and Windermere Secondary, 3155 East 27th Avenue; catchments are address-based, so check the exact address in the VSB locator.
What plans are changing this area?
The Joyce-Collingwood Station Precinct Plan guides change around Joyce Station, and the Rupert and Renfrew Station Area Plan — approved by Council in July 2025 — covers the Millennium Line station areas at the north side, on top of the Renfrew-Collingwood Community Vision.

Condo buildings in Renfrew-Collingwood
Naming note, stated at the top: the City of Vancouver's official local area is Renfrew-Collingwood, one of the City's 22 areas. "Collingwood VE" is the board-style short name for the Collingwood portion of that area around Kingsway, Joyce Street and Joyce-Collingwood Station at the Burnaby border; City plans and station work all use Renfrew-Collingwood.
Joyce by Westbank — 5058 Joyce Street (also 5050 and 5068 Joyce Street)
A 30-storey, 256-residence concrete tower directly across from Joyce-Collingwood Station, finished 2021; Strata Plan EPS7496, Freehold Strata title, managed by FirstService Residential per the building directory. Listings record pets allowed with restrictions.
Wall Centre Central Park — 5515 Boundary Road and 5665 Boundary Road (Wall Financial Corporation)
A three-tower condominium and townhouse community at Boundary Road and Kingsway, 1,060 homes in total per the developer sales source; Strata Plan EPS3434. The 5665 Boundary Road tower data records 36 floors, built 2017, Freehold Strata, with rentals allowed — some listings at 5515 Boundary Road record year built 2016, so the towers' completion years differ by tower and are listed separately. The building directory records the bylaws as: pets allowed, rentals allowed. The townhouse component is part of this community and is not counted again below.
Frame — 5189 Earles Street and 2727 Kingsway (Coromandel Properties and Peterson Group)
Two 10-storey towers joined by a 5-storey podium with outlying 4- and 5-storey podiums at Kingsway and Earles Street in Norquay Village: 217 condominiums over ground-floor commercial space. Current listings record year built 2026 and Freehold Strata ownership (the presale source estimated completion 2025 — the listing year governs here and the sources differ).
Circa — 3660 Vanness Avenue (Bosa)
A Collingwood Village building near Joyce Station, built 2006 per listings, which describe it as a well-managed, pet- and rental-friendly building by Bosa.
Clive at Collingwood — 3264 Vanness Avenue (Nexst Properties)
A concrete mid-rise steps from Joyce-Collingwood Station; a current listing records 68 units in development, Freehold Strata ownership and year built 2025, while the presale source records completion in 2023. Sources differ on the year built.
Urba by Bosa — 5380 Oben Street
A Collingwood Village building by Bosa; a current listing describes a corner home at Urba in Collingwood Village.
Brio by Bosa — 3638 Vanness Avenue
A low-rise concrete building in Collingwood Village; a current listing describes Brio by Bosa as a well-kept low-rise concrete building.
Aura by Westbury Properties — 5399 Joyce Street
A Joyce-Collingwood building; a current listing describes a 2-bedroom home at Aura by Westbury Properties in the heart of Joyce-Collingwood.
Clarendon Heights — 4933 Clarendon Street
A collection of 47 boutique residences just off Kingsway per a current listing for the complex.
3438 Vanness Avenue (Collingwood Village)
A building across from Joyce-Collingwood Station, built 1998 per a current listing, which describes it as a well-managed building in Collingwood Village.
Streets, schools and transit near Renfrew-Collingwood condos
- The Collingwood portion runs along the city's east boundary with Burnaby (Boundary Road), with the Collingwood stretch of Kingsway and the Joyce-Collingwood Station area inside it; a Collingwood-only boundary set is not published by the City because Collingwood is not a separate local area. Nearby areas: Kensington-Cedar Cottage west, Killarney south, Victoria-Fraserview south-west, Burnaby across Boundary Road east.
- Where the condo stock concentrates: in two clusters — the Joyce-Collingwood Station / Collingwood Village cluster on Vanness Avenue, Joyce Street and Oben Street (Joyce by Westbank, Circa, Brio, Urba, Aura), and the Kingsway corridor (Wall Centre Central Park at Boundary, Frame at Earles, Clive and Clarendon Heights off Kingsway). The interior streets are primarily single-family homes: the City's council summary of the Renfrew-Collingwood Vision states most of the community is single-family homes, with higher-density townhouses and mid-rise apartments clustered around the Joyce SkyTrain station.
- Main roads: Kingsway, Joyce Street, Renfrew Street, Rupert Street, Nanaimo Street, Boundary Road, and Grandview Highway across the north side.
- Transit: Joyce-Collingwood Station (Expo Line) and its bus exchange sit inside the area; the wider Renfrew-Collingwood area also reaches Nanaimo and 29th Avenue Stations (Expo Line) and Renfrew and Rupert Stations (Millennium Line). TransLink route 41 runs to Joyce Station via Joyce Street and Vanness Avenue.
Good to know about Renfrew-Collingwood condos
- Two Joyce towers, two tenures, one station. The strata Joyce (5058 Joyce Street, 2021) and the rental Joyce 2 (5083 Joyce Street) face each other across Joyce Street; the rental tower was placed in receivership by court order granted April 27, 2026, with leasing reported as continuing — the distinction matters for anyone comping "Joyce" units.
- The area's official name is not the board name. City plans, the station precinct work and the community vision all say Renfrew-Collingwood; "Collingwood VE" is the board short form. A search run under only one name misses stock filed under the other.
- The lakes are gone but the creek is not. The City states the area once had significant wildlife and lakes that no longer exist, including Moody Lake where the SkyTrain line is today — while Still Creek still runs salmon-bearing through Renfrew Ravine Park (5.89 hectares at 3900 Renfrew Street).
- Libraries anchor both ends. Collingwood Branch of Vancouver Public Library is at 2985 Kingsway and Renfrew Branch at 2969 East 22nd Avenue — the two civic anchors bracketing the condo clusters.

Townhome complexes in Renfrew-Collingwood
City plans, visions and station work all use Renfrew-Collingwood — the two names are not interchangeable in City documents.
Wellington Court — 3683 Wellington Avenue. Strata
A current listing records Sub-Type Townhouse, Subdivision Name Wellington Court, year built 1992, with strata fees payable, in the Collingwood VE sub-area; the building directory states the strata restrictions as pets allowed and rentals allowed.
Rae Garden (Rosanni Properties) — 3619 Rae Avenue. Strata
The developer/presale source describes two 3-storey woodframe buildings with 26 townhomes, completed March 2022, with a presale estimate of strata maintenance fees — and current listings record Sub-Type Townhouse, Subdivision Name Rae Garden, year built 2022, with strata fees payable, so the completed form is strata, not a presale carried forward. Published rental/pet/age restrictions: confirm on the Form B.
Chambers — 5003 / 5005 Chambers Street. Strata
A current listing describes "CHAMBERS, a boutique collection of 10 townhomes in Vancouver East's Collingwood neighbourhood," built 2020, with strata fees payable; the presale record for the same project (Chambers Street Development, at 5005 Chambers Street) records Townhouse type, 10 units, construction status Complete and estimated completion 2020. This is a different project from 8 on Chambers, below: different street numbers on the same street, different unit counts (10 vs 8) and different completion years (2020 vs 2019).
8 on Chambers — 5043 Chambers Street (units also listed at 5031/5033/5041 Chambers Street). Strata
A current listing describes "8 on Chambers," a boutique collection of just eight townhomes built in 2019 in the Norquay Village (Collingwood) neighbourhood, and states the home's area expressly as strata area over two levels; a second listing in the same collection carries the same "8 on Chambers in Norquay Village" description. The collection's unit count (8) rests on the listings' own project description, not on the excluded directory. Published rental/pet/age restrictions: confirm on the Form B.
Streets, schools and transit near Renfrew-Collingwood townhomes
- The Collingwood name on this page is the eastern Vancouver area around Kingsway, Joyce Street and the Joyce-Collingwood SkyTrain station, against the city's east boundary with Burnaby. Nearby areas: Kensington-Cedar Cottage to the west and north-west, Killarney to the south, Victoria-Fraserview to the south-west, and Burnaby across Boundary Road to the east.
- Collingwood VE is in Vancouver, which is outside SnapStats coverage in Jared's FVR + GVR September 2026 reports — no Vancouver section, sub-area rows or community medians exist for it, and no other stats source is substituted.
- Where the townhouse stock actually sits: (1) the Chambers Street cluster in Norquay Village, south of Kingsway — two separate boutique collections on one street; (2) the Rae Avenue / Wellington Avenue streets east of Joyce Station, toward Central Park and the Burnaby boundary; and (3) townhouse components inside the station-area apartment stratas (Wall Centre Central Park, Clive at Collingwood, 2300 Kingsway), which are documented, not counted. Most of the wider area is single-family homes, with higher-density townhouses and mid-rise apartments clustered around Joyce Station, as the City's council summary of the Renfrew-Collingwood Vision states.
- Transit and roads: Joyce-Collingwood Station on the Expo Line is the SkyTrain station and bus exchange inside the area, and TransLink is upgrading the station and bus exchange under the Joyce-Collingwood Station Precinct Review; the wider area is also served by Nanaimo and 29th Avenue Stations (Expo Line) and Renfrew and Rupert Stations (Millennium Line). Route 41 runs to Joyce Station via West 41st Avenue, Joyce Street and Vanness Avenue. Kingsway, Joyce Street, Renfrew Street, Rupert Street and Nanaimo Street serve the area, with Boundary Road at the east boundary and Grandview Highway across its north side.
Local rules that affect townhome buyers in Renfrew-Collingwood
- Form B diligence (all 4 counted strata complexes): Strata Property Act s. 59 — the Form B states the lot's monthly strata fees, amounts owing, approved special levies still payable, the CRF balance and an insurance summary, with the rules, current budget, any Rental Disclosure Statement and the most recent depreciation report attached; provided within 7 days, maximum $35 plus up to 25 cents per page. Listing-level rental/pet lines here are listing data, not bylaws — the Form B and registered bylaws govern.
- City zoning and plans — Vancouver's own instruments: the house streets sit under the R1-1 District Schedule of Zoning and Development By-law No. 3575 — minimum site area 306 m² for a single detached house or duplex and for a multiple dwelling of 3 to 4 units (minimum frontage 10.0 m), 464 m² for 5 units (13.4 m) and 557 m² for 6 to 8 units (15.1 m); a multiplex may have up to 6 units or up to 8 rental units, and a single detached house may include a secondary suite and a laneway house. The C-2 District Schedule applies on arterial commercial streets such as Kingsway. The Joyce-Collingwood Station Precinct Plan is the framework to guide change in the station precinct, the Norquay Village Neighbourhood Centre Plan covers the Kingsway centre, and the Rupert and Renfrew Station Area Plan, approved by Council in July 2025, covers the Millennium Line station areas at the area's north side, on top of the Renfrew-Collingwood Community Vision.
Good to know about Renfrew-Collingwood townhomes
- Two Joyce towers, two tenures, one station — and one is in receivership. The strata Joyce (5058 Joyce Street, 2021) and the rental Joyce 2 (5083 Joyce Street) face each other across Joyce Street; the rental tower was placed in receivership by B.C. Supreme Court order granted April 27, 2026, with building operations and leasing reported as continuing — the distinction matters for anyone comping "Joyce" units or renting beside the station.
- One street holds two separate boutique stratas, built a year apart. Chambers Street carries Chambers (10 townhomes, completed 2020, at 5003/5005) and 8 on Chambers (8 townhomes, built 2019, at 5043) — a buyer searching the street name alone will merge two stratas' fees, bylaws and depreciation reports into one imaginary complex.
- The village beside the station is mostly not townhouses, and a third of it is rental. Collingwood Village's 2,700 suites in 16 buildings (completed by November 2006) split 1,917 condominium to 783 rental, across four-storey townhouses, garden apartments, six-storey buildings and towers to 26 storeys — tenure in this pocket is confirmed building by building, never from the village name.
- Still Creek is a salmon stream with a floodplain, in the middle of the city. Renfrew Ravine Park, 3900 Renfrew Street, is 5.89 hectares with a portion of Still Creek running through it; the creek is one of the few remaining salmon-bearing streams in Vancouver and its floodplain sits in the City's designated floodplain dataset — ravine-edge purchases here carry flood construction level questions most Vancouver townhouse buyers never meet.
- The area once had lakes where the SkyTrain and the highway now run. The City states the area once had significant wildlife and lakes that no longer exist, including Moody Lake where the SkyTrain line is today and three smaller beaver-built lakes where Grandview Highway now runs — the dated anchor for why the north side of the area drains the way it does.
- Two libraries serve one local area: the Collingwood Branch of Vancouver Public Library at 2985 Kingsway and the Renfrew Branch at 2969 East 22nd Avenue, with Renfrew Park Community Centre and Renfrew Pool at 2929 East 22nd Avenue — the Collingwood/Renfrew name split runs through the civic anchors exactly as it runs through the area name itself.

Lots and land in Renfrew-Collingwood
Fee-simple lots
- Established house streets: the City's council summary of the Renfrew-Collingwood Vision states most of the community is made up of neighbourhoods of single-family homes, with higher-density townhouses and mid-rise apartments clustered around the Joyce SkyTrain station and medium-density apartments near Nanaimo Station. Freehold detached houses across the established streets; strata apartments and townhouses concentrated around Joyce-Collingwood Station and along Kingsway. The interior street pattern is historic subdivision fabric — built lots, not a lot offering.
- Lot character, as the R1-1 schedule states it: minimum site area 306 m² for a single detached house or duplex and for a multiple dwelling of 3 to 4 units (minimum frontage 10.0 m), 464 m² for 5 units (13.4 m) and 557 m² for 6 to 8 units (15.1 m); a multiplex may have up to 6 units or up to 8 rental units, and a single detached house may include a secondary suite and a laneway house. The C-2 District Schedule applies on arterial commercial streets such as Kingsway, with a stated intent of many commercial uses and dwelling uses along arterial streets.
- Serviced position: homes here are on City water and sewer services — the area is fully urban serviced stock on the City's wording.
- No ALR percentage split is stated — check any specific parcel on Agricultural Land Commission mapping.
- Station-area plans are plan positions, not inventory: the Joyce-Collingwood Station Precinct Plan is the framework to guide change in the station precinct, the Norquay Village Neighbourhood Centre Plan covers the Kingsway centre at the area's west edge, and the Rupert and Renfrew Station Area Plan (approved by Council in July 2025) covers the Millennium Line station areas at the area's north side. Check which plan, if any, covers a lot before pricing its land value.
Bare-land strata
- No bare-land strata plan or bare-land strata community in Renfrew-Collingwood was verified
The Joyce Street pair
- Joyce by Westbank — 5058 Joyce Street (also 5050 and 5068 Joyce Street)
- Joyce 2 — 5083 Joyce Street (Westbank). Excluded — purpose-built rental in court-ordered receivership, never strata or land stock: Supreme Court order granted April 27, 2026, on OPTrust's application over a matured loan, with building operations and leasing reported as continuing.

Joyce-Collingwood Station on the Expo Line is the SkyTrain station and bus exchange inside the area, and TransLink is upgrading the station and bus exchange under the Joyce-Collingwood Station Precinct Review; the wider Renfrew-Collingwood area is also served by Nanaimo Station and 29th Avenue Station (Expo Line) and Renfrew Station and Rupert Station (Millennium Line). TransLink route 41 runs to Joyce Station via West 41st Avenue, Joyce Street and Vanness Avenue.
- Civic anchors

The City states the Collingwood stretch of Kingsway is a shopping area.
Local rules that affect land buyers in Renfrew-Collingwood
- Zoning framework: the house streets sit under the R1-1 District Schedule of the City of Vancouver Zoning and Development By-law No. 3575 (minimums), with C-2 on arterial commercial streets such as Kingsway, layered by the Joyce-Collingwood Station Precinct Plan, the Norquay Village Neighbourhood Centre Plan and the Rupert and Renfrew Station Area Plan (approved July 2025), on top of the Renfrew-Collingwood Community Vision adopted by Council.
- Floodplain / creek diligence: Still Creek is one of the few remaining salmon-bearing streams in Vancouver, helps prevent flooding, and its floodplain is part of the City's designated floodplain dataset; the Rupert and Renfrew Station Area Plan includes nature-based solutions to manage flood risk around Still Creek. Parcels in the floodplain carry Building By-law setback and flood construction level requirements.
- If a parcel is in the ALR: subdivision within the ALR requires ALC approval; ALR residences cannot be stratified. On ALR land the main house can be up to 500 m², a suite is allowed only inside it, and an extra residence can be up to 90 m² (186 m² on parcels over 40 ha). For farm class, BC Assessment looks for farm income of $10,000 a year on under 0.8 ha, $2,500 on 0.8 to 4 ha, and $2,500 plus 5% of the value of land over 4 ha; applications are due by October 31.
- Empty Homes Tax — vancouver only, applies here: Owners must submit an annual property status declaration; the 2025 Empty Homes Tax payment was due April 16, 2026, with a 5% penalty on the unpaid balance after that date.
Good to know about Renfrew-Collingwood lots
- One street holds two towers with near-identical names and opposite tenures: the strata Joyce (5058 Joyce Street, 2021) and the rental Joyce 2 (5083 Joyce Street) face each other across Joyce Street; the rental tower was placed in receivership by court order granted April 27, 2026, with leasing reported as continuing — the distinction matters for anyone comping "Joyce" units or pricing land beside the station.
- The area's official name is not the board name: City plans, the station precinct work and the community vision all say Renfrew-Collingwood; "Collingwood VE" is the board short form. A search run under only one name misses stock filed under the other.
- The newest plan layer is dated July 2025: the Rupert and Renfrew Station Area Plan, approved by Council in July 2025, covers the Millennium Line station areas at the area's north side and includes nature-based solutions to manage flood risk around Still Creek — a 2024-vintage land analysis for a north-side lot is already one plan behind.
- The ravine is a filled lake country: the City states the area once had significant wildlife and lakes that no longer exist, including Moody Lake where the SkyTrain line is today and three smaller beaver-built lakes where Grandview Highway now runs — the Still Creek floodplain under the north side descends from that geography, which is why the floodplain check is not a formality here.
