Many people serve to improve the construction industry every day. Each year since 1964, the editors of Engineering News-Record have reviewed the stories that have appeared in the magazine during the year and selected individuals for special recognition. The newsmakers are chosen for their innovations and achievements, for giving back to the industry and the public, and for going beyond the duties of their day-to-day jobs. All the winners will be honored at a gala in New York City on April 7. Furthermore, ENR already has chosen the winner of its highest honor, the Award of Excellence. The winner will be the subject of our cover story in the April 11 issue of the magazine. In the pages that follow, ENR salutes The Top 25 Newsmakers.
