Toronto's Building Industry and Land Development Association, or BILD, has announced the finalists for the 6th annual People's Choice Award.

The eight nominated projects include a mix of mid-to-high-rise, as well as low-rise townhouse development through the GTA. Voting is now open to both members of BILD and to the general public. The finalists were chosen by BILD award panelists, recognizing excellence in innovation for home building in the GTA. While most of the projects will be familiar to readers of UrbanToronto, some of them are beyond the 416 and may not be as well known.
