From a skyscraper towering over Manhattan’s East River to the exterior envelop of a preK-12 school, the copper industry recently awarded the top 15 buildings from across the United States and Canada with its 2018 North American Copper in Architecture (NACIA) Award for their outstanding use of architectural copper and copper alloys. The winners include educational facilities, residential dwellings, government buildings and religious structures.
The NACIA awards program, established in 2008 by the Copper Development Association (CDA) and the Canadian Copper & Brass Development Association (CCBDA), recognizes and promotes copper buildings in the United States and Canada selected across three categories: New Construction, Renovation/Restoration and Ornamental Applications.
