After careful consideration, site visits, and healthy debate, the 2020 Harleston Parker jury made their choice for Boston's "most beautiful" new building: Dearborn STEM Middle-High School Designed by Jonathan Levi Architects.
But how do YOU define beauty in architecture?
During January 2021, the BSA opened up the polls for the 2020 People’s Choice Award. Everyone interested in architecture and design was invited to participate, selecting their favorite from the 2020 Harleston Parker Medal finalists (below). When the polls closed on January 23, 2021, the people had chosen their winner.
The 2020 People's Choice award winner is Boston Harbor Islands Pavilion designed by Utile, Inc. for the Boston Harbor Islands Alliance and the National Park Service.
