Construction Projects Represent Ground-Breaking and Top Quality Construction by Missouri’s Contractors
Innovative, resourceful and safety-minded are just a few ways to describe the contractors executing the construction projects selected as finalists for the 2023 Construction Keystone Awards. Finalists include sports and art facilities, medical and research complexes, apartment buildings, commercial projects, road, bridge and dam work, as well as a broad range of rail infrastructure, and military projects.
The Construction Keystone Awards are presented by the Associated General Contractors of Missouri (AGCMO). A panel of five judges selected these outstanding projects as finalists based on strict criteria and will continue their review of additional data provided by the finalists in order to determine the winning project in each category.
The submissions span eight categories focused on the work of AGCMO’s general contractor and specialty contractor members. The majority of the projects are competing in the Mid-America Class which covers projects built in Missouri plus eight contiguous states. Three large projects ranging in size from $7 million to $1 billion are competing in the National Class, covering the lower 48 states outside of the Mid-America Class territory. All entries were made by AGCMO members across Missouri.
Winners of the 26th Annual Keystone Awards will be announced and celebrated at the AGC’s Construction Awards Gala scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 2 at the River City Casino & Hotel in St. Louis. Specialty contractors also will be honored in various categories and the Specialty Contractor of the Year also will be announced.
“Our contractors continue to turn out some of the most ambitious and innovative projects in the nation, despite ongoing workforce issues and supply chain challenges, “said Leonard Toenjes, CAE, AGCMO President. “These exceptional projects are a testament to the phenomenal talent and dedication of our contractor teams. It starts with insightful and accurate estimating and planning, executed by talented project managers and skilled workers solving problems and overcoming day-to-day challenges in safe working environments. This is a chance to celebrate excellence and provides an opportunity for our contractors to share their success with their peers.
