The Grand Valley Construction Association (GVCA) has once again recognized the accomplishments of its member firms with the presentation of its 2018 Building Excellence Awards.

The awards were recently handed out in three categories — Institutional, Commercial and Industrial and broken down by dollar value.

In addition, awards were presented in the Restoration and Conversion, Innovation and Community Builder categories at an April 27 gala in Kitchener, Ont.

“Once again, our industry easily outdid itself when it comes to constructing buildings that are functional, beautiful and sustainable — and on ever tighter budgets,” said GVCA chair Steve Stecho.

“Again this year, our judges had a formidable task before them, how to choose excellence from among so many worthy entries. The awards are for the truly outstanding.”
