<p>\"The St. Louis construction industry has been an incredibly warm and receptive \'family\' for our efforts at CNR,\" said CNR Publisher Tom Finan. \"We felt that it would be fitting to make this celebration into something lasting by assisting Habitat for Humanity in their efforts to create affordable housing.\"</p>
<p>In addition to the Regional Excellence awards, <em>CNR</em> will present the first Thomas J. Finan, Jr. award, recognizing humanitarian contributions to the St. Louis community by members of the construction industry. The award is named in honor of the founder of <em>CNR.</em></p>
<p>Last year, St. Louis Habitat constructed 27 LEED Platinum-certified homes, a fact that was recognized at the recent USGBC \"Growing Green\" awards.
