All commercial, industrial and institutional buildings are eligible. Any architectural, engineering, contracting or development firm may submit one entry. Please indicate the name of the firm submitting the entry and a contact name. All entries become property of BD&C and will not be returned.

  11. Any other documentation (e.g., newspaper clippings, project schedules) that would be useful in explaining the challenges involved in the project's scope.
