MOST OUTSTANDING PROJECTS OF 2020 - SLC Airport Redevelopment Program Earns 'Project of the Year' Honors

Do Not Let Your Spirit Wane
    Out of all of the Christmas and holiday cards I received
this year, one summarizes 2020 best:
                                                                                             UC&D

    With a new year approaching, 2021 allows us to move past the ghosts of this
year and embrace that new normal and a fresh start. I gain heart from a song by an           Taylor Larsen

    Regardless of how scary and chaotic 2020 has been—March seemed like it
was never going to end—there has been some incredible good happening as well,
especially in our industry.
    Many of the people I’ve talked to have mentioned that it was one of the best years
of business that they have ever had. Work abounded and positions opened up to
move projects ahead. The New SLC International Airport saved years of time on future
construction and hundreds of millions of dollars because of the pandemic. Other
projects were completed in record time. Major thoroughfares are better equipped to
deal with Utah’s growth in terms of population and overall importance.

Intentional design was instrumental in making The Elizabeth
                                             Delong School for the Deaf such a unique and inviting place for
                                             students. The visible things like bright colors and striking materials
                                             combine well with the invisible, like near-silent mechanical systems,
                                             to make the space into an ideal learning environment.
