BL Companies’ role as project engineer on the Upper Allen Genius Kids Child Development Center in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, has earned the firm a 2026 Top Projects Award from Central Penn Business Journal.
Top Projects is an awards program that honors the best building and construction projects in Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon and York counties. The awards are not only a look back at the excellent work that took place in 2025, but they also anticipate how these plans and projects potentially establish landmarks of the future.
Projects were judged on the following criteria: degree of difficulty, creativity in design, innovative construction techniques, cooperation among contractors, management and in some cases government, adaptive reuse and sustainability efforts. Winners of the 2026 Top Projects Awards were chosen by the editors of Central Penn Business Journal.
“The 2026 Top Projects winners demonstrate how innovation, design and construction create projects that are making a mark on the Central Pennsylvania community, spurring economic growth in the region,” said Suzanne Fischer-Huettner, managing director of BridgeTower Media/Central Penn Business Journal. “This year’s recipients have created impressive landmark projects that have transformed the area. We at Central Penn Business Journal are pleased to honor this year’s award winners.”
The Top Projects Awards were presented at Central Penn Business Journal’s Real Estate & Development Summit on April 29 at the Sheraton Harrisburg Hershey Hotel in Harrisburg, and all honorees were profiled in a special section in the May 8 issue of Central Penn Business Journal.
