commentEngineering News-Record has announced the winners of its fourth annual Best of the Best Projects Awards, a national competition that recognizes design and construction excellence based on regional winners of ENR's seven regional publications’ Best Projects 2011 Awards. Winners will be profiled in the Feb. 13 issue of ENR.
“One of the judges called me personally to tell me how impressed he was with the entries,” said Janice L. Tuchman, ENR editor-in- chief. “I was delighted to tell him that I agree completely. We are proud to showcase such fine work.”
Out of 119 regional Best Projects winners, an independent jury of design and construction professionals selected 18 winners in categories ranging from green building to transportation. Projects were judged on safety, innovation, contribution to the industry/community, aesthetic and functional quality of design and construction craftsmanship.
One project, to be announced in the Feb. 13 issue of ENR, will also be selected for the Editor’s Choice Award – a single project that stood out to ENR’s editors as an outstanding achievement in 2011.
