Tender Issued to Construct 20-Unit Apartment Building in Corner Brook
September 15, 2025
The Newfoundland and Labrador Housing Corporation (NLHC) has issued a tender for a design-build contract for the construction of a 20-unit apartment building on Crestview Avenue in Corner Brook.
The building will feature 10 one-bedroom and 10 two-bedroom apartments, meeting the areas of greatest demand for NLHC housing. Four of the two-bedroom units will be fully accessible, while all units will include universal design features such as widened interior doors and hallways, lever-type door handles and faucets. Units will range in size from 500 to 1,000 square feet.
These 20 units are the next step in the Provincial Government’s commitment to construct 50 new NLHC homes in western Newfoundland by 2028. In July, a contract was awarded to Brook Construction (2007) Inc. to begin construction on six homes in the same area, with a completion deadline of July 2026.
The Provincial Government continues to advance affordable housing construction through a combination of public and private construction projects. In addition to the Provincial Government’s commitment to build 50 homes in western Newfoundland, another 50 homes are also committed for central Newfoundland by 2028 and four homes are already under construction in Labrador City. A further 32 NLHC units on Janeway Place in St. John’s will be completed this fall, located near the site of a future 40-unit apartment building for which proposals are currently being accepted.
Last week, Newfoundland and Labrador Housing Corporation launched a second round of the Affordable Rental Housing Program to meet continued interest from developers. To date, this project has resulted in the construction of 116 homes in 12 communities, while work is underway on another 153 homes and will begin soon on a further 152 homes.
