Finance & Commerce announces Top Projects of 2018.
Byline: Finance & Commerce
Minnesota's builders were busy in 2018 revamping or building housing, headquarters, and a natural history museum, among many other projects. From among this impressive collection of projects, an independent panel selected 40 honorees for Finance & Commerce's annual Top Projects.
The projects include headquarters for Land O'Lakes and Ecolab, a number of facilities on University of Minnesota campuses, and Rochester International Airport. To be eligible, the projects had to be fully completed by the end of 2018.
A panel of judges looked at the degree of difficulty, creativity in design, innovative construction techniques, cooperation among contractors and management, and sustainability efforts.
The projects will be featured in a magazine and in a series of stories and photos in the Finance & Commerce daily newspaper and on our website starting in July. The people and companies behind the projects also will be honored at a July 25 event at the Nicollet Island Pavilion.
