2010 Governor's Award for Design and Construction Excellence Announces Two Winners

CAYMAN ISLANDS

The Cayman Society of Architects, Surveyors & Engineers (CASE) and the Cayman Contractors Association (CCA), in conjunction with His Excellency Governor Duncan Taylor, CBE are proud to announce the recipients of the 2010 Governor’s Award for Design and Construction Excellence in the Cayman Islands – Elmslie Memorial Church and Camana Bay Town Centre. The winners were selected from 34 submissions that represented a diverse variety of projects from modern buildings to heritage projects. “I was extremely impressed with the quality of the projects that were submitted and shortlisted,” said Governor Taylor. “It was very difficult to choose just one project as both the Elmslie Church and Camana Bay Town Centre exemplify what the award stands for – Design and Construction Excellence. These two particular projects although built almost 90 years apart – were (and are) ahead of their time with regards to sustainability and design.”

The Award ceremony took place at the Governor’s House along with honourable guests, industry professionals and the Award sponsors Kirk Home Centre/Kirk Enterprises, Cox Lumber Co., Cayman National, AL Thompson’s Home Depot, CL Flowers and Sons, MC2 Design Group, REAL LIFE Magazine, National Concrete, Cayman First and Cayman Airways.
