Each year the city partners with Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) of Idaho to recognize organizations, businesses and individuals that built a new building or completed a building remodel that made Boise safer, more accessible to citizens, featured a unique design or was environmentally sustainable.
In her remarks announcing Boise State’s award, Julie Romig, a plans examiner for the city, called the structure “an innovative example of design and sustainability, emphasizing the university’s goal to become a leader in academics, research and civic engagement.”
