The Green Genius Awards are the region’s first and only awards to honor real estate brokers who are helping to transform the Pacific Northwest into a hub for greener living and a leader in sustainable community development. The winners of the Green Genius Awards were announced at the 2016 Built Green Conference and Awards Ceremony on September 13th.

At the 2016 Built Green Conference, we recognized exceptional Built Green builders and supporters with Built Green Hammer Awards and the Built Green Pioneer Award. Without the time, energy, and support of these Pioneers, Built Green would not be what it is today.
