NAIOP

For the first time in 13 years, the National Commercial Real Estate Development Corporation, known as NAIOP, partnered with TransLink to bring the Pacific Northwest Real Estate Challenge to Canada.

Students from UBC, Washington State, and Portland University competed to turn the Coquitlam Central Station into a community hub, making it highly walkable, offer mixed-use buildings, and preserve the functionality of the busy transit area.
