Annually since 1968, AIA New York State’s Annual Design Awards celebrate local, national and international projects that achieve architectural excellence designed by architects throughout New York State.
The Jury spent many hours reviewing submissions and had the challenge of choosing award recipients out of 274 submissions. A record 42 projects were recognized for Citation, Merit and Honor Awards in the following categories: Adaptive Reuse/Historic Preservation, Commercial/Industrial, Institutional, Interiors, International, Pro Bono Projects, Residential, Sole Practitioner, Unbuilt and Urban Planning/Design.

The Design Awards Jury, including Jury Chair Dan Kirby, FAIA, Principal and Client Services Leader for People and Places Solutions at Jacobs; Marilia Rodrigues, AIA, a Principal at Kieran Timberlake; David Burney, FAIA, Co-Founder and Director of the Urban Placemaking and Management program at the Pratt Institute School of Architecture; and Elizabeth Whittaker, AIA, Founder and Principal at MERGE architects had the challenge of choosing a handful of winners out of almost three hundred submissions.

The jury members stated, “We know that this is a long list, but these are deserving recipients from a strong class of submittals that survived considerable scrutiny. This represents the strength and talent of AIA New York State members.”

Out of the 42 award recipients, the jury also selected one project considered to be the “Best of the Best.” This year’s recipient is The TWA Hotel, designed by Beyer Blinder Belle .
