ENR Southeast Announces 'Top Starts' Call for Entries

The March 12, 2012, issue of ENR Southeast magazine will feature a ranking of the region’s Top Project Starts in Florida, Georgia and the Carolinas that broke ground in 2011. To have your project considered, we've created a form that readers can use to provide us with this infromation. The form, which is posted here in the "Related Links" box, should be completed and submitted by February 10, 2012. The annual Top Project Starts feature ranks the largest projects in the Southeast by construction contract value.

Owners, general contractors and design firms may all submit this information. The guidelines are as follows:

Eligibility: To be eligible, the project must be located in Florida, Georgia or the Carolinas and have started substantial construction between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2011. There is no limit to how many projects your firm can enter. Please use a separate form to submit each project.

Scott Judy is ENR’s Managing Editor. His roughly 34 years as a construction journalist began with an 11-year stint visiting and writing about construction projects in the Midwest region of Missouri, Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska. Then, in 2000, Judy helped launch ENR Southeast, now known as ENR Texas & Southeast. After all these years, Judy says his favorite part of being an ENR editor is visiting job sites and learning how—and reporting on—a team’s approach to overcoming the project’s design and construction challenges. And Judy says he never turns down an invitation for a project visit.
