From construction zone ➡️ polished preview ✨

Transformation in progress — from installation day to the finished aluminum panel display now lining City Centre 5 right here in the Health & Technology District.

While crews continue working behind the wall, the exterior now showcases the partnership bringing Surrey’s first purpose-built student housing project to life: Lark Group, ICT Group, Western Community College, and UniLodge.

Safe to say…this construction glow-up is looking pretty good!

A milestone moment for the Health & Technology District — celebrating the Grand Opening of Homewood Suites by Hilton, Surrey.

We were honoured to welcome Surrey Mayor Brenda Locke, who led the official ribbon cutting ceremony, alongside City of Surrey Councillors Linda Annis, Mike Bose, and Rob Stutt; Jeff Curry, Senior Director of Development at Hilton Canada; Kirk Fisher, CEO of Lark Group; and Haris Bokhari, General Manager of Homewood Suites Surrey.

More than a single opening, this reflects the continued evolution of the District. As major institutions, businesses, and new partnerships align, it is growing as a dynamic ecosystem supporting both economic activity and community building.

Homewood Suites by Hilton plays an important role in that ecosystem — with 189 thoughtfully designed studios and suites, the hotel is a proud addition to City Centre 4, strengthening a district where healthcare, education, technology, and hospitality come together.

This achievement was made possible through the collaboration and shared vision of valued partners from Aquilini Group, Lark Group, and the Homewood Suites team.

A special thank you to Stongs Market for the delicious charcuterie boards & desserts and STEMS by Stongs Market for the beautiful florals that helped bring the event to life. 🙌

Over two decades in the making, the Health & Technology District is evolving into a connected, eight-building campus beside one of British Columbia’s busiest hospital sites.

Built through a phased, long-term approach to city-building, it brings together healthcare, education, technology, and housing in one walkable, transit-connected environment—intentionally designed to support applied learning, workforce development, and long-term public benefit.

This integrated, live–learn–work ecosystem strengthens how care is delivered—bringing clinical services, education, and innovation into close proximity—while enabling students, professionals, and organizations to learn, collaborate, and grow together in a connected, evolving environment.
