This year, BILD has 10 People’s Choice Award finalists

Every year, the Building Industry and Land Development Association invites people to take a look at new GTA developments that have been shortlisted through our annual BILD Awards and vote for the one that most captures their attention.

The winning project receives BILD’s People’s Choice Award. The People’s Choice is one of the most sought-after honours in the BILD Awards, which celebrate excellence and innovation in the GTA home building industry, because it’s particularly meaningful for builders and developers to be recognized by the very people for whom they build homes and communities: the people of the GTA.

This year, BILD has 10 People’s Choice Award finalists. Visit www.bildpca.ca to learn about them and cast your vote by August 31. You’ll be eligible to win a $250 prepaid VISA card.
