Each year since 2001, MAS has paid tribute to local New York City projects—from iconic buildings to hidden neighborhood gems—that exemplify excellence in architecture and urban design. Past winners include the Manhattan District 1/2/5 Garage & Salt Shed, McCarren Pool and Bathhouse, the Tenement Museum, the TKTS Booth, the High Bridge, and LaGuardia Terminal B Arrivals & Departures Hall. The awards program helps MAS in its 125-year mission to help build a future in which all New Yorkers share in the richness of city life—where growth is balanced, character endures, and a resilient future is secured.
Hurry, nominate your favorite project of 2021 by Thursday, June 30!
