PLYMOUTH, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Pinehills, by New England Development, is one of the country’s most celebrated examples of creating community and is honored to be the recipient of the 2019 Gold PRISM Award for Best Mixed-Use Community.
The Builders and Remodelers Association of Greater Boston (BRAGB) recently held its annual PRISM Awards Gala at the Boston Marriott Long Wharf Hotel to celebrate the best of the best in the local residential building industry. The awards recognize the finest projects and outstanding achievements of builders, developers, project owners, architects, land planners, interior designers, remodelers, and other professionals in the home building industry.
The Mixed-Use Community category included any urban, suburban or village development, or even a single building that blends a combination of uses including residential, commercial, cultural, institutional or industrial. Judges considered the overall integration of this variety of different uses and how together they benefitted the community and its residents.
