“The 2014 Masonry Construction’s Project of the Year winners showcase the significant contributions the masonry industry makes to the advancements in architectural design. These projects demonstrate cooperation between the mason contractor, materials supplier, design engineer, and architect,” said Editor Rick Yelton.

Masonry Construction’s Project of the Year contest exemplifies mason contractors’ contributions, including: helping architects and engineers create the best masonry has to offer; exceptional problem solving and teamwork; painstaking restoration and repair work; and environmentally friendly construction.

The awards include two Projects of the Year and winners in four categories. The project teams will be honored in an awards ceremony at the World of Concrete/World of Masonry in Las Vegas.
