Building Communities. Creating A Legacy. Since 1959
A division of The Shaw Group Limited, Clayton Developments is part of a business legacy spanning more than 165 years. We have created thoughtfully planned communities that more than 80,000 residents call home and have built a strong history of strategic partnerships in land development, multiple residential development and homebuilding. Today, Clayton has approximately 3,000 acres under partnership arrangements in Nova Scotia and 114 acres in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Quality is the foundation of every Clayton community. Through premium locations, rigorous design standards and thoughtful planning, we create vibrant neighbourhoods that balance urban convenience with access to nature. Because building a community takes more than lumber and nails—it takes care, commitment and a focus on the people who will call it home.
Clayton has designed and developed more than 24 residential communities throughtout Atlantic Canada include The Ravines of Bedford South, Knightsridge, Colby Village, Clayton Park and Portland Hills to name a few.
Our Current Communities
THE A.C.E. INITIATIVE
All new Clayton Developments communities are measured against our three key pillars - affordability, climate change, and energy efficiency (A.C.E). These pillars are what guide our planning and design efforts to help us create positive, measurable change for residents and communities where we do business.
