Heritage Value: The primarily single-family subdivision and development in the Clinton-Glenwood Neighbourhood occurred during the building boom of the 1950s. Later development fell under the guidelines established in the Royal Oak Community Plan (adopted in 1999) and resulted in an increase in the number of multi-family units.

Geographic Access: Rumble Street

Associated Dates: 1951-1993

Heritage Value: In 1950, the Burnaby School Inspector reported: "the recent development of a number of large housing projects and the continuing growth of new homes in settled areas are compelling the Board to consider a building program of major proportions...now under construction, including McPherson Park with 21 classrooms." Enrolment in its first year was 686 students. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, junior high schools were replaced with expanded secondary schools encompassing grades 7 through 12; as a result, McPherson Park Junior High was closed and Burnaby South Secondary School opened.

Heritage Value: Sussex Avenue school was another school built during the peak expansion years of the 1950s and early 1960s. Burnaby's population was growing at such a fast pace during that decade that 10 new schools were built, and existing schools were expanded. Sussex Avenue School opened with 304 pupils. By the 1970s, student enrolment had slowed considerably from its peak and as a result, a number of schools - including Sussex - were closed.

Heritage Value: The Sussex-Nelson Neighbourhood is located just south of Metrotown and in 1980 was characterised as the most populated of all of Burnaby's Planning Study areas. The area immediately south of Metrotown was initially developed as post-war 1950s housing stock, while the sector south of Rumble was developed after the 1960s and 1970s as single-family housing.
