ENR Photo Contest 2007: Buildings
Of the three absolute requirements for life—water, air and shelter—only shelter depends on human ingenuity. This gallery celebrates the process of the intense communication and teamwork that modern construction requires of its participants to realize in metal, glass, wood and stone, the heights of design imagination.
ENR Photo Contest 2007: People
Everything that is built begins with people and their minds and hands. People are the soul of construction, and we celebrate that with some of the best images of people at work you ever will see.
ENR Photo Contest 2007: Infrastructure
If habitats are seen as the cells of life, everything else we build in the world that services and connect them must be seen as infrastructure. The range and variation boggles the mind, and so does the expertise required to design, build and maintain it. This gallery is the most eclectic and surprising of all.
2006: The Year in Construction

2005: Images of the Year in Construction
Will anyone ever forget the images of the Chinook helicopters target-bombing sandbags into the breached New Orleans canals? Or the sight of $3 a gallon posted above the pump at the gas station?
2004: The Year in Construction
If one was to judge by the headlines in 2004, America was in desperate turmoil during the year as the bloodshed in Iraq continued unabated, ferocious presidential campaigning was pursued relentlessly by candidates seeking the opportunity to steer the nation one way or another and political demonstrations took on proportions last seen in the Vietnam era.
2003: The Year in Construction
The world struggled with issues of terrorism, security, economic recovery, environment and quality of life in 2003 and construction was along for the ride, sometimes driving solutions for sticky problems and other times being dragged reluctantly along. Global construction needs seemed almost insurmountable when taken as a whole.
