EBies Honor "Unsung Heroes" of High-Performance Buildings

Urban Green Council has announced the winners of the first “EBies,” which the group is touting as “the Oscars of sustainable building.” This year’s awards honor ten projects in six categories, with the goal of acknowledging “’unsung heroes’ who have made great strides in improving environmental performance but whose accomplishments may otherwise go unheralded,” according to a press release. Buildings undergoing operational improvements or retrofits—but not gut renovations—were eligible for the awards.
