About

Each February, we celebrate the best of BOMA New York and the spirit of our great city by presenting
our Pinnacle Awards to the premiere buildings and people in the city. Competition for the coveted prizes
is both fair and fierce, involving a comprehensive nomination and submission process. These awards have
increasingly begun to symbolize what we do best for our tenants, our clients and the City of New York at large.

The Winners

All local Pinnacle Award winners enter the national TOBY (The Outstanding Building of the Year) award competition – first at the Regional level (the Mid-Atlantic Conference Regional Awards, covering 16 major cities from Boston to Washington, DC) and then at the North American level (BOMA International), including all of the US and Canada.
​
Regional winners are usually announced in the Spring at the annual BOMA Mid-Atlantic Conference event, and the 
BOMA International winners are announced in June at the Association’s annual conference and trade show.

Raising the Bar

Each year, within the BOMA International community, New York climbs the pinnacle with greater success as our local
awardees win their categories at the local and international competitions. Though we have been recognizing excellence
through an awards process for more than four decades, several years ago we pledged to raise New York’s awards profile on the Regional and International levels. The result? Extraordinary! 60 Regional TOBY Winners and 16 International TOBY winners!
​
We are more determined than ever to make Greater New York the standard of excellence for our industry. We have a mentoring program and a peer review process to help our colleagues complete the awards process successfully and go on to represent New York on a global stage. So good luck, do your best, and be part of one of the most successful winning streaks in BOMA history!
