The EIC Awards celebrate 86 of the nation’s top construction projects from 2025, including school relocations; convention center, courthouse, and beach resort renovations; and the construction of science parks, apartments, and hospitals, as well as honoring contractors for their remarkable achievements in leadership, health and safety, innovation, and merit.
“Receiving this national recognition is a testament to the dedication, expertise, and collaboration of our entire team,” said Wyatt Montgomery, Vice President of Preconstruction at Limestone Building Group. “We are proud to deliver high-quality projects that not only meet our clients’ expectations but also strengthen the communities we serve.”
“Communities thrive when infrastructure is built and rebuilt with excellence, just like this project completed by the team at Limestone Building Group,” said 2026 Chair of the ABC National Board of Directors Thomas “Murph” Murphy, vice president of Power & Construction Group, Scottsville, New York. “ABC’s EIC Awards celebrate achievements in both construction projects as well as recognizing quality, safety, and innovation that these teams deliver. This project, honored at the 36th annual gala is an example of ABC contractor members’ remarkable achievements in leadership, safety, innovation, and merit. Congratulations to Limestone Building Group for showcasing the pinnacle of construction excellence.”
