Leonard Masonry Honored at AIA/CPC Awards

Words: Dan KamysLeonard Masonry, Inc. received two awards at the 15th annual Excellence in Design awards. Sponsored by the American Institute of Architects' St. Louis Chapter and the Construction Products Council of St. Louis, the competition received more than 125 entries in five categories.

The St. Louis-based mason contractor received a merit award for its work on a private residence pool house, honored for its precise detail. The owner requested that the new pool house match the existing structure originally built in 1921.

Leonard Masonry also was awarded an honorable mention for the tremendous effort of matching new materials with previous masonry work at the Federal Reserve Bank. The mason contractor recommended granite with a thermal finish to blend with the bush-hammered and jetted finish of the existing building.

"We take great pride in ensuring that our work is exceptional and unique," said Jeff Leonard, president. "We are always gratified when our efforts are recognized by our peers and clients."
