The Judges’ selection for this year’s overall Project of the Year from the Best Project-level winners listed below will be announced in the October issue of ENR MidAtlantic and the ENR MidAtlantic Best Projects awards event in October.

This year’s 25 winning projects in the main categories—which are listed at the bottom of this post—will also be profiled in depth in the October print issue of ENR MidAtlantic.
Two panels of industry judges reviewed more than 80 projects located throughout the region, including Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia.
The judges were divided into two groups and assigned a group of categories. Projects were evaluated on the ability of the project team to overcome challenges, contribution to the industry and community, safety and construction and design quality. Due to the large number of entries, we can only honor a fraction of the projects that are submitted each year, so if your project didn’t win this year, please be sure to submit next year!
Judges could select any combination of Best Project-level category winners and Award of Merit honorees.
