2022 Georgie Awards Represent the Best in BC Residential Construction
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Vancouver, BC, June 6, 2022 – On Saturday, June 4, British Columbia’s premier housing awards program, the Georgie Awards, returned to a live in-person event for the first time in two years.
49 Awards, in six focus areas were presented in front of a sold-out audience of nearly 700 at the Hyatt Regency in Vancouver. The winners and finalists represent the spectacular homes and projects completed by the Canadian Homebuilders’ Association of British Columbia (CHBA BC) members across the province that were built, renovated, developed, created and marketed from January 1, 2020 – September 30, 2021.
“As the housing market continues to be a favourite topic of conversation across the province, from the water cooler to the dinner table to the backyard BBQ, the Georgie Awards are a special night for our members and guests to celebrate their projects from the past year,” says CHBA BC President, Cassidy deVeer. “The well-deserved winners and finalists represent the best single-family homes, multi-family developments, interior design and outdoor spaces in the B.C. residential construction industry.”
The 2022 Georgie Awards mark the 30th year for this prestigious awards program. As the Georgie Awards pass this significant milestone, CHBA BC continues to strive to make the event bigger and better every year. This awards season, CHBA BC received an 11 per cent increase in submissions. The finalists and winners were selected by a judging panel of out-of-province industry professionals.
“We planned for this year’s gala cautiously, as government restrictions on in-person events evolved over the past months. I’m pleased to say that we had a sold-out crowd, and our staff delivered a spectacular event which inspired and awed our guests and delivered well-deserved accolades to our members.” says CHBA BC CEO, Neil Moody.
