About
The City of Port Coquitlam is excited to announce the official launch of the Donald Storywalk!
The Donald Storywalk is a collaboration between the City of Port Coquitlam and the Terry Fox Library. It features Port Coquitlam resident Logan Willis’ winning story from the 2022 Flash Fiction contest, titled Riches of the River, and is illustrated by Akemi Emma Ito.
The illustrated story is installed on 8 panels, starting at the newly updated Elks Park and ending at Wilson Avenue. This community arts project promotes literacy and enhances the City’s outdoor spaces.

The City of Port Coquitlam
Port Coquitlam is a community of 61,000 with a strategic location in Metro Vancouver, a healthy base of businesses, new commercial and industrial areas, 271 hectares of parkland including the 25-km Traboulay PoCo Trail, well-established neighbourhoods, and a strong sense of community spirit known as PoCo Pride.
It also has a reputation for progressive governance and for its innovative approaches to managing waste, sustainable development and using technology to engage the community.
Since it was incorporated on March 7, 1913, Port Coquitlam has experienced significant growth and has strived to remain relevant to the changing times. At the same time, the City has retained its small-town charm, its authentic historic downtown core, and a tradition of community involvement.
The City strives to balance social, environmental and economic values while fulfilling citizen priorities.
