Lincoln station is an elevated stop on the Millennium Line of Metro Vancouver's SkyTrain rapid transit network, situated in Coquitlam, British Columbia. Positioned along Pinetree Way between Lincoln and Northern Avenues, it provides access to nearby commercial areas such as Coquitlam Centre and the Henderson Place shopping complexes.

History

Commissioned in 2016 together with five additional stations as part of the Millennium Line's Evergreen Extension, Lincoln station was developed by the architectural firm Perkins+Will.

Although originally not included in the extension blueprint—due to the proximity of Coquitlam Central station to key local destinations—Lincoln station was incorporated after appeals from Coquitlam Centre mall proprietors and adjacent residential developers. These parties financed the $28 million required for construction to ensure improved transit accessibility, exemplifying a collaborative effort between private sector investors and public transit officials.
