Finalists Announced for 2015 Construction Keystone Awards
St. Louis Construction News and Review
Construction Projects Represent the Highest Quality Construction by Missouri’s Contractors
Innovation, creativity, high-tech and excellence are just a few of the attributes associated with the construction projects selected as finalists for the 2015 Construction Keystone Awards. Finalists include a range of projects including hospitals, educational buildings, treatment plants, energy production facilities, roads and churches.
The Construction Keystone Awards are presented by the Associated General Contractors (AGC) of Missouri. The submissions, spanning 12 categories, represent the highest level of professionalism, craftsmanship and quality in construction by Missouri’s general and specialty contractors. A panel of judges selected these elite projects as finalists last week, and will continue their review of additional data provided by the finalists in order to determine the winning project in each category.
Now in its 18th year, The Construction Keystone Awards honor the highest achievements of Missouri’s construction firms and salute their contributions to the built environment. The facilities and infrastructure built by member contractors, create new jobs, support economic growth and enhance the quality of life in our communities. Missouri’s construction workforce is comprised of 112,900 persons and has shown a 2.5 percent increase over the past 12 months, according to data recently released by the AGC of America.
The winners of the 2015 Keystone Awards will be announced and celebrated at the AGC’s Construction Awards Gala scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 12 at the River City Casino & Hotel in St. Louis.
“Each year the judges face extremely difficult decisions in declaring finalists in each category, and this year is no exception. The challenges presented to our contractors and their ability to meet those challenges is the essence of the Keystone Awards,” says Len Toenjes, AGC President. “The ingenuity and craftsmanship represented by this year’s finalists continue to exemplify the spirit of the Keystone Awards. Our finalists represent the very best in the construction industry.”
