BY DEBORAH PADDISON
It's a fall tradition for Arizona architects, engineers, contractors and masonry professionals to gather and celebrate the winners of the annual Excellence in Masonry Architectural Awards, presented by the Arizona Masonry Guild. In October the Guild honored 11 projects for outstanding masonry design, workmanship and creativity with brick, block or stone. The winning projects in the 16th annual program included residences, municipal projects, university buildings and clubhouses. A panel of jurors from Denver, Colorado judged the entries, chaired by Joseph J. Poli of Humphries Poli Architects, P.C. Here are the winning projects and their associated firms.
