EMCOR Services New England Mechanical Honored by Associated Builders and Contractors for Hartford 21 Project

 

SOUTH WINDSOR, Conn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--EMCOR Services New England Mechanical (NEMSI) received both a local Excellence in Construction (EIC) and a national Pyramid Award from the Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) for work on the Hartford 21 project in downtown Hartford, CT. The Pyramid Award was presented during the ABC Convention 2025 in Las Vegas, NV.

NEMSI constructed a new, state-of-the-art central plant for Hartford 21, a 34-story apartment building, to significantly improve efficiency. The system is expected to generate sufficient energy savings for a seven-to-eight-year project payback and to offset the equivalent of nearly 2,000 metrics tons of C02.

“The Hartford 21 project combined a design/build delivery approach for the mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and building automation systems in an effort to reduce energy consumption and lower operating costs for the customer,” said Russ Stevens, President & CEO of NEMSI. “We are honored to receive the Pyramid Award for this project, which reflects the collaboration and dedication of our team members and their unwavering commitment to excellence.”

“This project is the epitome of excellence, demonstrating quality, health, safety, and innovation in our industry,” said David Pugh, the 2025 Chair of the ABC National Board of Directors and partner at Bradley, Birmingham, Alabama. “The teams at NEMSI are the best of the best in merit shop construction.”

The EIC awards recognized 96 of the nation’s most outstanding construction projects from 2024. Additionally, NEMSI was named one of ABC’s 2025 Top Performers for its achievements in health and safety, quality, diversity, and project excellence ranked by work hours.
