ENR New England is proud to announce the winners of its 2015 Best Projects competition, honoring the top projects in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont. 

An independent jury named 16 projects in 10 categories as award winners. Nine projects were awarded the high honor of “Best Project” in their respective categories. Those projects will advance to the national competition to be considered for a “Best of the Best” national award.

All winning projects will be featured in the Nov. 9, 2015 issue of ENR New England and honored during our awards event on Nov. 12 in Boston. One project will also be honored as our Best Overall Project in the region. In addition, the jury will also select winners in the Safety award category, which will be announced soon.
