I'm surprised that they are allowing anything higher than a 6 or 4 storey Lowrise that far east from Metrotown or that far South for Kingsway (assuming rezoning is granted, that is), but I guess Burnaby is really pushing for more density if that's the case.

96 is townhouses at Sanders and Royal Oak (north of Kingsway) - not this one.
The 'Metrotown area' goes to Royal Oak and includes the west side of the street. East of that is the 'Royal Oak area' and almost everything that's been built nearby recently has been 4 stories with the ground floor being retail.
It's not as far away as you think. Royal Oak Station is a 4 min walk, Kingsway is a 2 min walk and The Bay at Metrotown is a 10 min walk (basing the times on the intersection of Royal Oak and Grimmer).
