Chase Plaza nominated for its renovations

One of Chase’s most visited buildings has secured its place among 31 finalists for the Re/MAX Thompson Okanagan Commercial Building Awards

One of Chase’s most visited buildings has solidified its place among 31 finalists for the Re/MAX Thompson Okanagan Commercial Building Awards, the winner of which was to be unveiled at the Coast Capri Hotel in Kelowna Thursday, Oct. 18.

The Chase Plaza, located at 4125 Brooke Dr., was chosen as a finalist in the Renovation category of the competition.

There are more than 70 nominees for the awards, which celebrate the best in commercial, industrial and revenue- producing properties from Kamloops, Salmon Arm, Armstrong, Vernon, Kelowna, Summerland, Peachland, Penticton, Okanagan Falls, Oliver and Osoyoos.

“The number and quality of the nominations from all over the Thompson Okanagan region is simply outstanding, one of the best we’ve seen yet,” notes event organizer Mark MacDonald. “Adding Kamloops and the South Okanagan from Penticton to Osoyoos has bumped the number of projects, as those areas have not had commercial building awards before.”

To be eligible, the buildings must have been completed between Jan. 1, 2011 and June 30, 2012.

A panel of independent judges, selected at large, have reviewed each nomination, looked at the overall exterior design of the project, and determined how each fits into the surrounding area before deciding the winners.
