With the 2016 Olympics starting in Rio de Janeiro this week, I’m excited to report that ENR brought home “the gold” in our own field—a competition hosted and judged by business-to-business editors.
Just my luck that the first international board meeting I attended for Bridges to Prosperity included the opening ceremonies at 11,500 ft in the mountains of Bolivia.
Last year at this time, ENR Transportation Editor Aileen Cho was heading out on the “Low & Slow Across America’s Infrastructure” tour, exploring the nation’s aging roads and highways in a 1949 Hudson Commodore.
The winner of this year’s Award of Excellence was first publicly announced in New York City at the April 7 luncheon honoring the ENR Top 25 Newsmakers.
One evening in 2010, Award of Excellence winner Jason F. McLennan and Bullitt Center developer Denis Hayes—the man McLennan credits with masterminding the Living Building Challenge’s most important project—were chatting about life as they walked to dinner.
Construction management pioneer John Tishman died Feb. 6 at age 90 after a long illness. He managed the construction of the original 110-story World Trade Center twin towers in New York City and the 100-story John Hancock Center in Chicago, as well as Century City in Los Angeles, Walt Disney’s EPCOT Center in Florida and the restoration of Carnegie Hall.
This week completes an annual ritual for ENR editors. Each fall, we comb through the issues of the previous year for individuals who have served the best interests of the construction industry and the public.
