UniverCity
UniverCity, located atop British Columbia’s Burnaby Mountain and adjacent to Simon Fraser University (SFU), one of Canada’s premier educational institutions, is a 65-hectare (161-ac) master-planned community expected to house more than 10,000 residents upon completion. A compact, mixed-use, transit-oriented community, UniverCity is founded on principles of environmental, economic, and social sustainability. Developed and owned by the SFU Community Trust, UniverCity transfers its revenue to the SFU endowment to fund research and education—creating a profitable model for universities with surplus land.
