Winter often transforms landscapes into magical scenes, and the historic Gibraltar property in Wilmington, Delaware, is no exception. Known as the Hugh Rodney Sharp Mansion, this historic gem is undergoing a remarkable transformation thanks to the tireless efforts of Eastern Horticultural Services and Anchor Builds. Controlled Creations is proud to document this journey through the lens of drone photography.
A Historic Treasure Under Restoration
Gibraltar has long been a symbol of Wilmington’s rich history and architectural heritage. Under the leadership of the City of Wilmington, outgoing mayor Mike Purzycki, and incoming mayor John Carney, the restoration of this property is a testament to the power of collaboration and commitment to preserving Delaware’s cultural landmarks. Even in winter, when the property is blanketed in snow, the progress on the grounds and structures shines through.
The Role of Controlled Creations
Our team has been working closely with Eastern Horticultural Services to capture the restoration’s progress. Using aerial drone photography, we’ve been able to showcase the intricate details of the property and its surrounding landscape from a bird’s-eye view. This visual storytelling highlights the craftsmanship, planning, and dedication that go into bringing this historic property back to life.
The snow-covered grounds provided a unique opportunity to photograph Gibraltar in a way that underscores the serene beauty of the property while emphasizing the careful restoration taking place.
A Story Worth Sharing
The restoration of Gibraltar isn’t just about preserving a building—it’s about honoring the past, investing in the present, and inspiring the future. Controlled Creations is honored to contribute to this story by documenting its progress and sharing its beauty with the community.
Stay tuned as we continue to follow this journey through every season. We can’t wait to see how Gibraltar evolves and shines brighter with each stage of its restoration.
