ENR Texas & Louisiana is pleased to announce the winners of its 2022 Best Projects competition!
After a month of hard work, an independent panel of experts from all corners of the AEC industry reviewed a total of 94 projects and selected 17 Best Projects and 17 Awards of Merit across 18 categories. As always, to avoid conflicts of interest, our judges did not score any categories in which their firms submitted entries, and if they had any involvement with a project, they abstained from scoring.
A big thanks go to this year's panel of expert judges:
In addition to selecting category winners, our judges have also chosen three finalists for ENR Texas & Louisiana's 2022 Project of the Year — that winner will be announced at our Best Projects event in October. We'll be previewing the finalists in another blog leading up to the event.
Judging is still in progress for the annual Excellence in Safety and Excellence in Sustainability contests—be on the lookout for those results in the coming week.
All winning project teams — as well as our Owner of the Year, Design Firm of the Year, Contractor of the Year, Specialty Contractor of the Year and Legacy Award winner — will be celebrated in Houston on Oct. 13 at the InterContinental Houston – Medical Center.
