Brentwood will also never be a walkable community because it is bisected by two major arterial roads that are used by heavy trucks. The only thing Brentwood has for it is that it's close to the City of Vancouver.

This. That's why we aren't interested in buying the condo from my landlord, we'd rather just move more East to Mount Pleasant or Commercial area.
Brentwood is not walkable whatsoever. It's not nice walking up and down Lougheed Hwy, and north of us is all hills, so on a walkability score the area rates quite low.
I don't see that changing with the addition of SOLO.
