ENR's "2020 Year in Construction" Photo Contest Winner
The 2020 ENR Photo Contest Winners Gallery showcases a collection of the world’s greatest construction photography taken in the past year, and we are incredibly proud to be featured alongside so many incredible photographers.
"On the way up in an office project elevator, pressed in by virus-related protective tarp, photographer and agency owner Ely Hemnes caught a Swinerton project manager, Adelicia Colmenero, as she cast a wistful gaze outward. For Hemnes, it seemed to capture all that was hopeful about the future of women in construction and a day when COVID -19-related constraints would no longer crimp the space needed by the industry's up-and-coming women managers."

"The Unfound Door Achieves Several Business Enterprise Certifications"
- Mile High CRE
We are so honored to be recognized for several distinguishable certifications we have achieved at the local, state and federal levels including MWBE – Women Business Enterprise; DBE – Disadvantaged Business Enterprise; EBE – Emerging Business Enterprise; SBE – Small Business Enterprise; and WOSB – Woman-Owned Small Business.
One of the tenets we built our company on was not only becoming a designated woman-owned small business, but also to be actively involved in our community, which is one of the many reasons we are so proud to have received these certifications.
Achieving these valued certifications allows us to distinguish ourselves as a company actively increasing the knowledge of potential client needs, industry trends, project updates and the constantly changing landscape of Colorado.
