Ed Sorbara, Principal and CEO of the Sorbara Group, an established and well-respected commercial and residential land developer and home builder in the GTA, received the Lifetime Achievement Award for his service in the industry, BILD and the community. "What I think really defines Edward is the man he is and the way he contributes to industry efforts, never being afraid to tell it like it is and always in the context of what is best for the Greater Toronto Area, David Wilkes, CEO of BILD. Congratulations Ed!!
Fittingly, the last award of the night was given to Great Gulf as the Home Builder of the Year Low-Rise. Two of our other clients, Times Group and CollecDev, were both finalists in the Green Builder of the Year category, which was ultimately won by Tridel. We are proud to have worked with all of these winners and runner-ups, and congratulate all of the finalists and winners of the other prestigious awards. The event was attended by close to 1,300 people, evidencing yet again, a very healthy and vibrant land building and development industry in the GTA. |
