Shindico Realty’s corporate headquarters at 1355 Taylor Ave. in Winnipeg received two awards at the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) Manitoba Awards of Excellence event recently.
The Shindico Building received the BOMA TOBY (The Outstanding Building of the Year) for best office building under 100,000 sq. ft. as well as the 2016 Earth Award for best office building under 100,000 sq. ft. The TOBY award recognizes quality in commercial real estate building and excellence in building management.
In order to apply for a BOMA TOBY, the building must be BOMA BEST certified. In 2015, the Shindico building became one of only five buildings in Manitoba to receive BOMA BEST Gold. A combination of community impact, tenant relations, energy management, sustainability practices, emergency preparedness and building personnel training is required to be eligible for this award.
The Earth Award is presented to the building that has made significant efforts to reduce its environmental foot print.
“Thank you to our team led by Alex Akman – we look forward to representing Manitoba on a national level in Regina,” says Sandy Shindleman, president and CEO of Shindico.
