Join Green Building United for the 2025 Groundbreaker Awards, our region’s premier celebration of leadership in sustainable design, construction, and community impact. Held this year at 3.0 University Place—the first life sciences building in the country to achieve both LEED® and WELL® Platinum certifications—Groundbreakers recognizes the people and projects transforming the built environment in the face of climate change.

Each year, the Groundbreaker Awards spotlight the achievements of developers, designers, advocates, and community leaders who are pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in high-performance building and sustainable development.
