Meet Your 2021 USGBC Virginia People's Choice Award Nominees

On July 22, USGBC Virginia, National Capital Region, and Maryland will recognize the best of the best in local sustainable building at A Midsummer Night's Green. We will be announcing our Community Leader Project Award winners in up to eleven different categories. One category, however, stands out from the rest - our People's Choice Award! The winners of this prestigious award will be chosen by event attendee vote, and because A Midsummer Night's Green is a celebration of three local USGBC communities, three winners will be chosen - one for Virginia, the National Capital Region, and Maryland.

Check out the list below to see the inspiring projects nominated for this year's USGBC Virginia People's Choice Award. You can also view our nominees for the National Capital Region here and Maryland here. Join us at A Midsummer Night's Green on July 22 to cast your votes and help decide the winners!
