Two Wells projects were recognized this year.
Denver Public Schools Responsive Arts and STEAM Academy FNE (RASA)
K-12 School Honorable Mention
Denver Public School’s Responsive Arts & STEAM Academy FNE (RASA) aims to provide a holistic learning experience by integrating arts and music into a science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEAM) curriculum. The design for the new school was brought to life through the use of multiple building systems, including steel, mass timber, and precast concrete.

ISU Jack Trice Gateway Bridge
Non-highway Bridge Honorable Mention
Originally opened in 1975, Jack Trice Stadium at Iowa State University (ISU) has hosted football games for the Cyclones for a half-century. Now, the new East Gateway Pedestrian Bridge offers a safe, reliable means for fans to access the stadium over University Boulevard, a four-lane street that experiences heavy traffic on game days. With a need to blend creativity and practicality, Raker Rhodes Engineering partnered with Wells to design the pedestrian bridge, leveraging precast concrete beams, columns, double tees, slabs, and architectural walls in the design.
