This year, 1201 Third and the Wright Runstad & Company Team dominated the Over 1 Million SF Category at the International TOBY Competition! Read about their exciting win here.

Please note that the entry form, registration fee and online submission (https://toby.boma.org) are due by October 16, 2020.  The judging will take place in late October. It is our goal to provide the Pacific Northwest an entrant in all 17 categories on the International level in order to accurately portray the splendor that encompasses the buildings throughout our region. This year, the entire process will be done online and local judging may be done virtually. More information will be sent to those that submit an entry form.

Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, BOMA acknowledges that on-site building inspections may be impacted. TOBY judges have been given the option to conduct on-site or virtual inspections at the discretion of the BOMA local association. For more information, please refer to the TOBY Awards Virtual Site Inspection document – https://toby.boma.org/Documentation/2020_06_16_TOBY_Inspections%20_COVID_19_FINAL.docx
