Nominations for the following four awards programs are due March 16. Visit uli.org/awards for applications or more information.These awards are open to all, not just ULI members.

• ​​The ULI Global Awards for Excellence define the standard for real estate development practice worldwide. In its 37th year, the program is the centerpiece of ULI’s efforts to identify and promote best practices in all types of real estate development from around the world. The awards recognize the full development process of a project—construction, economic viability, marketing, and management, as well as design. E-mail [email protected]​ for more information.

• ​The ULI Urban Open Space Award celebrates and promotes the creation of transformative and thoughtful public open spaces both big and small. In its 6th year, this award is not meant to be a landscape architecture or urban design prize; rather it is intended to honor the impact of the open space—from the look and feel of the space and how intensively it is used to its economic and social impact on adjacent communities. The winner of the award receives a $10,000 cash prize. ULI is now accepting global applications for the 2015 competition. E-mail [email protected] for more information.
