The 2020 ENR MidAtlantic Best Projects winners include a diverse set of projects from across the region.
Two panels of industry judges reviewed more than 80 projects located throughout the region, including Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia.
The judges were divided into two groups and assigned a group of categories. Projects were evaluated on the ability of the project team to overcome challenges, contribution to the industry and community, safety and construction and design quality. Due to the large number of entries, we can only honor a fraction of the projects that are submitted each year, so if your project didn’t win this year, please be sure to submit next year. Judges could select any combination of Best Project-level category winners and Award of Merit honorees.
This year’s 2020 ENR MidAtlantic Best Projects winners are:

The new YMCA opened its doors inside the SunTrust building. It replaces the old location at the James Center, which ended operations on June 29.
Compared to the previous site, the new location will be less than half the size of that, at 12,000 square feet. Even if it sounds small, it still packs a mean punch.
Douglas Development filed an application with the Board of Zoning Adjustment (BZA) that seeks a special exception to bring large-format retail to the nearly two-acre site along New York Avenue between 16th Street and the private Walt Lincoln Way NE. BZA approval would enable the developer to construct a 1-2 story commercial building on the site anchored by Target.

For the past 20 years, Carpenter’s Shelter has been operating out of a renovated Department of Motor Vehicles building on North Henry Street.
While the building has served the organization very well, said Carpenter’s Shelter Executive Director Shannon Steene, the building has been under very heavy use and is in need of an overhaul. In addition, the City of Alexandria is in dire need of more affordable housing for residents.
That combination of factors means that on June 9, the Carpenter’s Shelter organization will be moving into part of the former Macy’s store at Landmark Mall while a new, 7-story building with underground parking, affordable housing and a new shelter is built on North Henry Street.
