Kudos to Kwame Building Group of St. Louis for bringing home awards for two of the largest projects in St. Louis history - Busch Stadium and the Lambert-St. Louis International Airport expansion project.

KWAME President Tony Thompson accepted the “Project Achievement Award” award for the Lambert project from the Construction Management Association of America at the CMAA annual conference last month in Tampa.

The $1.059 billion project was managed by the SPK joint venture — a collaboration between Jacobs Engineering (formerly Sverdrup), Parsons Corp. and Kwame Building Group, which led the project team.

KWAME also pulled in two “Best of 2006″ awards from McGraw-Hill’s Midwest Construction magazine, which named the Busch Stadium construction project as “Overall Project of the Year” and the Lambert-St. Louis International Airport expansion project as “Transportation Project of the Year.” Hunt Construction in association with Kwame Building Group served as the design-build contractor on the $270 million Busch Stadium project.
