The jury awarded points to construction submissions based on a number of criteria, including overcoming challenges and teamwork, safety, innovation and contribution to the industry/community, construction quality and craftsmanship, and function and aesthetic/quality of the design.
This year’s lineup of winning projects are the result of outstanding teams of professionals.
Once again, two special statewide honors were also awarded – Owner of the Year and Contractor of the Year.
