Owners, contractors, design firms, specialty contractors and others from across the five-state region of Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma and Texas entered 94 projects into ENR Texas & Louisiana’s 2022 Best Projects competition. An independent group of judges selected 36 of those for recognition, with 19 named Best Projects and 20 receiving awards of merit. Some projects won more than one award.
This year’s team of judges, selected from all corners of the AEC community, spent a month reviewing entries for achievement in five areas: project challenges and solutions, safety programs, innovative design and construction solutions, contribution to the construction industry and the community as well as design quality and craftsmanship. Projects are ineligible for an award if they had a construction-related death.
