Development, says the company is delighted
with the award. It underlines the success
of East Village where Gibraltar’s homes
have sold particularly well:
“We constructed a new city street connecting
Quidi Vidi Road to Cuckhold’s
Cove Road. This new street has been
named ‘Regiment Road’, evoking the military
history of the region. We started home
construction in the late fall of 2004. Within
eleven months, no less than 25 of the homes had been constructed, sold and occupied.”
All properties in this development were
custom designed by David Kelly, P.Eng.,
President of Gibraltar Development, and
are priced from $180,000 to $350,000.
Four consecutive years
East, west and central, Gibraltar’s homes
have brought a level of quality and distinction
to the inventory of homes in the capital
region. The company’s first Builder of the
Year (multi family) award (2002) was for
Brittany on Bond, an eight-unit executive
brownstone project on Bond Street, overlooking
St. John’s harbour. The second was
for West Highlands (2003), a 10-unit townhome
development located at the corner of
Empire Avenue and Newtown Road. The
third (2004) was for Hillview Trails, a 16-
unit semi-detached project off Southside
Road. Builder of the Year awards are made
by the Canadian Home Builders Association
- Eastern Newfoundland.
Gibraltar Development Limited principals

Frank Foley, Director, a noted homebuilder
in this region for some years with
Dave Kelly, P.Eng., as President. The company
has been a strong supporter of the
Canadian Home Builders Association -
