RICS Pro Yorkshire awards





The Old glassworks, Pot House Hamlet has been short listed for the RICS Pro Yorkshire and Humberside awards 2008. There are now only five schemes to choose a winner from. The Awards celebrate excellence in the built and natural environment. Winning schemes make it to the grand final through regional heats. This vital stage of the RICS Award process involves teams of judges visiting the best projects in their regions. There are 12 UK regional heats and an international heat, where projects are pitted against one another. The 2008 winners will join a long line of inspirational schemes including, the iconic Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth, London's Royal Opera House, the Eden Project in Cornwall, and the site of the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney. We find out tomorrow night if the Old Glassworks has won.
