METRO by Mosaic is a completed 60-home freehold-strata townhouse community at 6868 Burlington Avenue, close to Royal Oak Station. Built around landscaped pedestrian mews, its two- and three-storey rowhomes are recognizable for steep saltbox gables, a charcoal-white-and-brick exterior palette and yellow front doors. It offers a lower-density alternative to Metrotown's concrete towers while retaining rapid-transit access.
