Key context on Oakridge Park
- Oakridge Park in Vancouver is a major redevelopment of the former Oakridge Centre, planned as a large mixed-use complex with retail, residential, and office components. The project has faced multiple delays and is being rolled out in phases, with the most ambitious completion targeted for 2029. This redevelopment has included a shift from a traditional enclosed mall to a more expansive, multi-use urban center [CBC article discussing phased opening and 2029 completion].[2]
Recent opening timeline
- As of May 2026, reports indicated that Oakridge Park would begin operating the retail component in a phased manner, with a full completion extending through 2029.

What’s open or announced for tenants
