Oakridge Presale Condos

The Cambie Corridor Municipal Town Centre

Oakridge is a neighbourhood on Vancouverā€™s West Side currently experiencing a massive redevelopment driven by the Cambie Corridor Plan. Historically defined by single-family homes and the regional shopping centre at 41st Avenue and Cambie Street, the area is transforming into a high-density, mixed-use urban district. The complete reconstruction of the former Oakridge Centre into Oakridge Park serves as the anchor for this shift, introducing residential towers, office space, and a massive public park system to the core. For presale buyers, Oakridge represents an opportunity to purchase into what planners have designated as Vancouverā€™s second downtown outside the peninsula.

Presales Profile

Housing Types

The presale market in Oakridge is dominated by high-density forms. Concrete highrise condominiums are the primary housing type, particularly within the Oakridge Park master plan and along the Cambie Street arterial, where towers offer significant height and views. The corridors transitioning away from the 41st & Cambie intersection, feature a selection of concrete and woodframe mid-rise buildings. Townhomes are less common in the central core, but can be found in the transition zones towards the single-family residential areas.

The Oakridge Buyer

Oakridge attracts a demographic prioritizing urban connectivity and access to major services. This includes downsizers moving from detached homes on the West Side who wish to remain in the area, as well as professionals commuting to Downtown Vancouver or the airport via the Canada Line. The area also draws families attracted to the proximity of high-ranking schools, Langara College, and the extensive park systems that define the neighbourhood.

Your Guide to Oakridge Living

Shopping & Services

The future commercial landscape will be anchored by the completed Oakridge Park, designated as a Municipal Town Centre. This redevelopment introduces approximately 850,000 square feet of retail space, featuring a pedestrian-oriented high street, a large-scale food hall, and a diverse collection of international and local retailers. Complementing this central node, the Cambie Corridor Plan requires active retail frontages for new mixed-use developments along the arterial, ensuring that future residents will have access to new supermarkets, pharmacies, and services at the base of residential buildings throughout the district.

Oakridge offers enviable access to prominent parks and recreation options, including  Queen Elizabeth Park and the new public spaces in Oakridge Park. Together, these provide walking areas, sports facilities, cultural amenities, and landscaped open spaces.

Transportation & Commuting

Is Oakridge Right for You?

Oakridge is suitable for buyers who want to live in a transit-oriented district with a wide range of services within walking distance. Residents who value access to civic facilities, parks, and a substantial retail centre will appreciate its convenience. Buyers looking for highrise homes, mid-rise presales along the Cambie Corridor, or townhomes within quieter residential streets will find multiple options that support different household needs. Homebuyers seeking a quiet, low-density residential lifestyle should look at neighbourhoods, like Shaughnessy or Kerrisdale, further west.
