Pier West – Presale Condos New Westminster

Overview

Pier West is one of the most ambitious waterfront residential developments ever undertaken in New Westminster’s revitalized riverfront district. Located at 660 Quayside Drive and 680 Quayside Drive, the project introduces two striking residential towers rising above the Fraser River shoreline, forming a landmark gateway to the city’s waterfront community. Designed to redefine luxury living in the area, Pier West blends high-rise architecture, modern interiors, and direct access to one of Metro Vancouver’s most vibrant urban waterfronts.

One of the most compelling benefits of Pier West is its prime location along the Fraser River, offering many homes expansive water, city, and mountain views. The development sits steps from the New Westminster Quay boardwalk, allowing residents to enjoy waterfront promenades, restaurants, shops, and marina views just outside their front door. At the same time, the project is within walking distance of the New Westminster SkyTrain Station, providing quick connections to downtown Vancouver, Burnaby, Surrey, and other parts of the Lower Mainland.

The surrounding neighbourhood continues to experience significant growth and revitalization. New retail spaces, improved public plazas, and expanded green spaces are transforming the riverfront into one of the region’s most desirable urban communities. For buyers, this means access to both lifestyle amenities and strong long-term investment potential.

Pier West also stands out for its architectural presence. The towers are designed with contemporary glass façades that maximize natural light and views, while the podium levels incorporate public spaces and landscaped areas that connect the building with the surrounding waterfront. The result is a development that not only provides high-quality homes but also contributes to the evolving identity of New Westminster’s riverfront district.

For presale buyers seeking a mix of urban convenience, scenic surroundings, and a modern residential environment, Pier West offers a rare opportunity to live in a waterfront community while remaining fully connected to the broader Metro Vancouver region.

Key Features

Pier West is planned as a two-tower residential development featuring hundreds of condominium homes positioned above a commercial and amenity podium. The towers rise approximately 53 and 45 storeys, making them among the tallest residential buildings in New Westminster and a defining element of the city skyline.

The homes are designed to maximize both views and livability. Large windows and open-concept interiors help bring natural light into the spaces while framing views of the Fraser River, city skyline, and surrounding mountains. Floorplans are designed to accommodate a wide range of buyers, including first-time purchasers, downsizers, and investors looking for rental-friendly properties.

Typical home options include:

• Studio and one-bedroom homes designed for efficient urban living
• One-bedroom plus den layouts offering additional workspace or flexibility
• Two-bedroom homes suited for small families or shared living
• Larger premium residences in upper levels with expansive views

Many homes feature private balconies, modern kitchens with integrated appliances, and contemporary finishes throughout. Interior design emphasizes clean lines, durable materials, and functional layouts suitable for everyday living.

Residents at Pier West will also benefit from an extensive range of private amenities designed to support both wellness and social interaction.

These may include:

• Fitness centre and wellness areas
• Residents’ lounge and social gathering spaces
• Outdoor terraces and landscaped seating areas
• Co-working or study spaces
• Concierge services and secure building access

Amenities

In addition to indoor amenities, the development integrates with the surrounding public waterfront space. The ground-level design enhances pedestrian access to the Fraser River boardwalk, making it easy for residents to enjoy walking, cycling, and outdoor recreation along the river.

Pricing for Pier West condominiums varies depending on unit size, floor level, and views. Historically, presale pricing has generally started in the mid to high $500,000 range for smaller homes, with larger two-bedroom and premium view units exceeding $1 million. Waterfront orientation and higher floors typically command premium pricing due to unobstructed views of the river and skyline.

Because of its scale, design, and location, Pier West represents one of the most prestigious condominium developments currently available in New Westminster’s presale and new-construction market.
