2016 CTBGC Student Project Award of Honor

Last night was the 10th annual CT Green Building Council – Green Building Awards and we had a great turn out from our team to accept the Student Project Award of Honor. In addition to accepting a very cool EcoSphere award, we had a chance to see some amazing projects from all over our innovative state and meet with professionals from the world of architecture, construction, and engineering .

What an amazing honor! We would like to thank the CTGBC, the jurors, and awards committee for recognizing our hard work. We also wish to thank all of the companies which sponsor our team and support our mentors – check out our page: ‘Our Supporters’ for more information.
