Fraser Mills Unveils First Look at Future Waterfront Community Centre

A major milestone has been reached at Fraser Mills as Beedie Living and the City of Coquitlam unveil the first detailed renderings of the future community centre planned for Coquitlam’s first and only waterfront neighbourhood.

Designed to serve as a central gathering place for residents and visitors alike, the new facility represents an important step in creating the complete, connected community envisioned for Fraser Mills.

A Destination for Recreation, Wellness, and Connection

Located along the Fraser River, the nearly 60,000-square-foot recreation and aquatic facility will offer a wide range of amenities designed to support active, healthy lifestyles and meaningful community connections.

Planned features include a leisure pool with waterslides, a five-lane lap pool, a full-size gymnasium for indoor sports, a fitness area, multi-purpose rooms, and welcoming gathering spaces. Together, these amenities will provide opportunities for recreation, fitness, learning, and social engagement for residents of all ages.

More than just a recreation facility, the community centre is envisioned as the social heart of Fraser Mills, creating a vibrant destination where neighbours can connect, families can spend time together, and community life can flourish.

The Heart of Coquitlam’s Waterfront Neighbourhood

As Fraser Mills continues to evolve, the community centre will play an integral role in establishing a lively waterfront neighbourhood that brings together homes, parks, public spaces, and everyday conveniences.

Its prominent riverside location will further enhance the neighbourhood’s connection to the waterfront while creating a welcoming destination for both residents and the broader Coquitlam community.

The unveiling of these first renderings offers an exciting glimpse into the future of Fraser Mills and the amenities that will help define life along the Fraser River.

Building a Complete Community

The future community centre is one of many exciting elements planned for Fraser Mills, a master-planned waterfront community that will transform the historic mill site into a thriving new neighbourhood.

With Debut, Encore, and Chapter now under construction, Fraser Mills continues to take shape as a complete community featuring 5,500 new homes, more than 16 acres of parks and green space, a new elementary school, childcare spaces, shopping, dining, and a variety of community-serving amenities.

Together, these investments are helping create a destination where residents can live, work, play, and connect, all within a walkable waterfront setting.

Looking Ahead

As construction progresses and new milestones are reached, Fraser Mills continues to move closer to realizing its vision of becoming one of Metro Vancouver’s most exciting waterfront communities.

The unveiling of the future community centre marks another significant step forward and reinforces the long-term commitment to creating a neighbourhood that combines exceptional homes, vibrant public spaces, and amenities that will serve generations to come.
