The Paul McDonell Residence is a landmark Metrotown project named in honour of the late Burnaby City Councillor Paul McDonell, a lifelong advocate for community welfare. Purpose-built to address the displacement of long-term renters, the residence reflects a deep commitment to housing stability and inclusivity.
The project delivers 125 units of affordable rental housing for seniors and families, with a range of rent levels—from deeply subsidized to low-end-of-market—ensuring the neighbourhood remains accessible to residents across a broad spectrum of incomes.
Together, these homes strengthen the fabric of the community by allowing long-time residents to remain in the neighbourhood, supporting social diversity, and providing stable, dignified housing that helps Metrotown continue to grow as a complete and inclusive community.
