USGBC Virginia is pleased to announce our 2021 Project Award finalists. Our Community Leader Awards promote and recognize excellence in sustainable design, environmental stewardship, and community impact and highlight the green building initiatives and achievements of local projects, businesses, and individual leaders. Given in several categories, our Project Awards honor innovative, high-performance projects that are leading the way to a greener tomorrow for all in Virginia.

Winners will be announced alongside honorees from USGBC National Capital Region and Maryland during a special virtual awards ceremony at the annual A Midsummer Night's Green celebration on July 22.
