Alberta homebuilders took home 15 awards at the 2021 Canadian Home Builders’ Association (CHBA) National Awards for Housing Excellence, including two of the biggest awards going to a couple of Edmonton’s most popular communities.

The Village at Griesbach by Canada Lands Co. (CLC) won for “Best New Community” and Chapelle Gardens by Brookfield Residential took home the “Best Growing Community” award this year.

The annual awards held in Ottawa on May 7 recognizes the best in Canadian new homes, home renovations, community development and residential marketing. This year more than 730 entries of top projects from across the country were received, representing rural and urban communities.

Over 700 entries were submitted into 53 categories this year. Finalists and winners were selected by a group of nearly 200 judges made up of industry professionals from all over Canada.

“The residential construction industry, like most industries in Canada, has had a tumultuous year. But despite the unknowns and challenges with lumber and other building materials, and labour shortages, our members continued to build and renovate the homes that Canadians need, and to develop communities they want to live in,” said CHBA CEO Kevin Lee.
