Salute honors construction, design professionals

Representatives of all facets of construction and design gathered Nov. 8 at the Clarion Hotel for the Salute to Construction Banquet. Guests began the evening with happy hour, including hors d'ouevres served by Business Journal staff members, including circulation assistant Billie Marsala (top left). A high level of participation in the annual Faces & Places in Construction Photo Contest gave visitors to the event plenty to look at in the lobby (above), where the more than 40 contest entries were mounted and displayed.
