On 2 August, I was pleased to attend the Property Council ACT awards night and gala ball. The awards night was held in the great hall of Parliament House, and the theme of the evening was night circus. I would like to place on the record my congratulations to all the award winners for 2013. The winner of the ACT property development of the year, sponsored by Rider Levett Bucknall, was RM Hope Building, 2 National Circuit, developed by ISPT Pty Ltd, designed by Fender Katsalidis Architects.

The ACT property business of the year was sponsored by GHD, and the winner was GEOCON. The Allan Wylucki property professional of the year was sponsored by Hays Property and the winner was Mark Chappe, director, Rider Levett Bucknall. The winner of the ACT future leader of the year, sponsored by the ACT Building and Construction Industry Training Fund Authority, was Karen Billington, sustainability manager of Northrop Consulting Engineers. And the executive director’s award for outstanding contribution to the Property Council went to Brendan Bilston, the principal of Point Project Management.
