Finalists Announced: D CEO’s 2022 Commercial Real Estate Awards

By Brandon J. Call

It wasn’t easy, but after culling through all of the nominations in our tenth annual Commercial Real Estate Awards, we have named finalists in all 21 categories.

Launched in 2013, D CEO’s annual program recognizes outstanding projects, deals, and industry players. The selected finalists represent many of the region’s largest transactions and developments, but also several smaller deals that are poised to be game-changers in their industries or neighborhoods.

Winners will be revealed at an invitation-only event in March and featured in the April issue of D CEO.

All 90 finalists are listed below, in alphabetical order. Be watching D CEO Real Estate in the coming weeks for profiles of all finalists, leading up to the awards celebration in March.
