Application Deadline Extended for Pillars of the Industry Awards

The deadline for applying for NAHB’s 2005 Pillars of the Industry Awards — which honor excellence in multifamily design, development, marketing and management — has been extended to Nov. 8, and the deadline for completing entry portfolios has been extended to Nov. 17.

NAHB created the Pillars Awards in 1990 to honor superior achievement and leadership in the multifamily industry and to promote the benefits of apartment living. Pillars is today recognized as the most prestigious national awards competition in the industry and is considered a showcase of innovation and future trends.

“Each year the Pillars program proves that today’s rental apartments and for-sale condos are better than ever and offer great design and lifestyle choices to residents,” said Sharon Dworkin Bell, NAHB’s senior staff vice president for multifamily. “It’s always a thrill to be able to honor the companies and multifamily professionals involved in the year’s best work.”
