More New Westminster houses

Sapperton Houses: streets and boundaries

  • Sapperton is the slope neighbourhood above the Fraser River between McBride Boulevard and Brunette Creek, taking in Royal Columbian Hospital, the Sapperton and Braid SkyTrain stations, Hume Park and the Brewery District.
  • The name comes from the Royal Engineers' Columbia Detachment camp: "Sappers' Town," from 1858, is the origin of the Sapperton name.
  • East Columbia Street is the spine, carrying the 109 bus between New Westminster Station and Lougheed Station.

Sapperton Houses: the housing stock

  • 6680, 2001, with the RT-A and RT-B townhouse districts applying where the Official Community Plan designates them.
  • The station areas at Sapperton and Braid are a Frequent Transit Development Area, so the slope's house streets sit beside a designated growth area rather than inside a static enclave.

Sapperton Houses: rules that affect buyers

  • Flood rules bite at the bottom of the slope, not on it: the Brunette River industrial land is Floodplain Zone 4, below the Flood Construction Level, while the residential slope above is not the risk pocket.

Sapperton Houses: local details a buyer would not know

  • Hume Park and Lower Hume Park, by the Brunette River, hold the pool, lacrosse box and off-leash area, and the Brunette-Fraser Greenway and Sapperton Landing Park tie the slope to the Fraser waterfront.
  • Sapperton Park dates to 1907, making it one of the city's oldest park sites.
  • The Brewery District is the former Labatt brewery site on East Columbia Street, redeveloped by Wesgroup as 1.4 million square feet across 8 buildings, 7 of them complete.

Sapperton Houses: development and new projects

  • Brewery District, East Columbia Street, Wesgroup, redevelopment of the former Labatt brewery site: 1.4 million square feet across 8 buildings with 7 complete, including Building 1 at 290 East Columbia Street (2013), the TransLink and Transit Police headquarters office over retail, and Building 2 at 200 East Columbia Street (2010) — status: 7 of 8 buildings complete (as of November 3, 2026).
  • Royal Columbian Hospital redevelopment, 330 East Columbia Street, Fraser Health: the Jim Pattison Acute Care Tower opened to patients May 31, 2026, and Phases 2 and 3 total about 2 billion dollars — status: tower open; later phases in delivery (as of November 3, 2026).

Sapperton Houses: getting around

  • Sapperton and Braid stations, both on the Expo Line, serve the area's two ends, and the 109 bus runs on East Columbia Street between New Westminster Station and Lougheed Station.
  • McBride Boulevard is the west-side route off the slope, and Brunette Creek and the Brunette-Fraser Greenway frame the east side.

Sapperton Houses: risks and due diligence

  • Check flood position by elevation: the Brunette River industrial land at the slope's foot is Floodplain Zone 4 below the Flood Construction Level, so a low-lying lot needs a flood check even though the residential slope is not the risk pocket.
  • Expect hospital-area construction and traffic through the later redevelopment phases at Royal Columbian Hospital.
  • Confirm the SD40 catchment for the exact address, since the recorded chain for 331 Richmond Street does not settle other Sapperton streets.
