More Burnaby houses

Forest Glen Houses: streets and boundaries

  • Forest Glen is a Burnaby South house area between Metrotown and Edmonds, named for Forest Glen Park at 4855 Bond Street. Its house streets run around Kingsway, Willingdon Avenue and the Bond Street and Nelson Avenue blocks, east of Metrotown.
  • The board label adds a Burnaby South tag, written as Forest Glen BS in listing area labelling. The name itself is Forest Glen; the BS tag is an area code, not part of the neighbourhood's name.
  • Metrotown and Patterson sit to the west, and Burnaby Hospital and Cascade Heights sit to the north-east. Edmonds and South Slope lie to the east and south-east, and Deer Lake lies to the north.

Forest Glen Houses: the housing stock

  • Detached houses on the Bond, Nelson and Sussex-side streets are the stock this page covers, separate from the corridor towers. The Kingsway frontage through Forest Glen carries taller corridor buildings that belong to the town-centre corridor, while the interior streets hold the freehold house lots.
  • The City lists a 700 square metre meeting and activity room for 100 people there, with no regular office hours and visits by arrangement.
  • Forest Glen Park at 4855 Bond Street is the named neighbourhood park on the City's parks list. The larger green spaces at the edges are Central Park to the west and Deer Lake Park to the north.

Forest Glen Houses: rules that affect buyers

  • The Forest Glen caution is zoning by street: Kingsway and Willingdon corridor parcels are not R1 house lots, so the SSMUH counts apply only to R1 lots on the interior streets and must be confirmed parcel by parcel.
  • The Cascade Heights Community Plan covers the neighbourhood north-east of Forest Glen toward Burnaby Hospital.

Forest Glen Houses: local details a buyer would not know

  • Forest Glen's detached streets sit between two town centres on one corridor. The City states its town centres combine transport and social infrastructure with homes and jobs and are served by SkyTrain plus high-frequency and local buses, and Kingsway through Forest Glen is the corridor between Metrotown to the west and Edmonds to the east.
  • Fraser Health lists it as the urgent and primary care option on this side, separate from Burnaby Hospital to the north-east.
  • Deer Lake Park at 6450 Deer Lake Avenue, north of the area, is open dawn to dusk year-round.
  • The City confirms only the four-branch, one-per-quadrant structure, with the nearest town-centre branch node at Metrotown to the west.

Forest Glen Houses: development and new projects

  • Do not carry Metrotown's named towers into this area, as they sit in the neighbouring Metrotown sub-area across Willingdon Avenue.
  • Cascade Heights Community Plan, neighbourhood north-east of Forest Glen, City of Burnaby: adopted community plan affecting the hospital-side streets. Status: officially adopted March 2025 (as of November 3, 2026).

Forest Glen Houses: costs and taxes

  • The Forest Glen-specific cost is the suite charge: for 2026 the City charges a two-family dwelling, entire property, $978.50 for water, and a rented suite in a single-family dwelling $326.17 for water plus $403.00 for sewer use.
  • Cross-connection charges are added where they apply, and prices on the City's table include tax.

Forest Glen Houses: getting around

  • Route 110 is the defining transit service for Forest Glen houses, running on Bond and Nelson themselves. Its published path runs between Metrotown Station and Lougheed Station via Willingdon Avenue, Deer Lake Parkway, Royal Oak Avenue, Gilpin Street, City Hall, Sprott Street, Sperling Station, Winston Street, Government Road and Eastlake Drive.
  • Kingsway, Willingdon Avenue and Imperial Street are the main roads through the area. Canada Way lies to the north-east and Marine Drive and Marine Way lie to the south toward the Fraser River.

Forest Glen Houses: risks and due diligence

  • Confirm the zone before paying for corridor potential on a Kingsway or Willingdon lot. Those parcels follow their own zones, not the R1 house rules, so a multiplex assumption borrowed from an interior street can be wrong for the lot in front of you.
